Despite not having a true spring game this weekend, Virginia head coach Bronco Mendenhall says that the team is ahead of where he expected to be at this point.
In his first ACC teleconference, Virginia football head coach Bronco Mendenhall paid high compliments to the team's progression to date.
"The team has really done everything I've asked them to do and have done it at a really high level," Mendenhall said.
Originally, Mendenhall had told reporters that there would be a spring game only if the players earned it. Virginia just yesterday released details on Virginia's Spring Football Festival, where it was announced that the team would treat the event as an open practice, with "live-game situations" included, but no spring game.
