<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.fieldstforum.com/2015/03/18/storify-uga-opening-spring-practice-updates-pics-videos/" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s</a> a good round-up of observations yesterday at <em>Field Stream Forum</em>.</li>
<li><a href="http://dawgtime.com/317-spring-practice-report-pruitt-hits-ground-running-and-raving/" target="_blank">Patrick Garbin</a> notes that Jeremy Pruitt hasn&#8217;t changed his approach a bit.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.macon.com/2015/03/17/3644999_georgia-opens-post-bobo-era.html?rh=1" target="_blank">Nick Chubb</a>, comparing the two offensive coordinators he&#8217;s played under: <em> “He’s a lot nicer,” Chubb said. “That’s pretty much it. They’re both great coaches.”</em> And upon further review?  <em>The niceness may not last either, Chubb added. “It’s his first day,” Chubb said. “It’ll come.”</em></li>
</ul>
<p>The best news of all was that Thomas Brown sounds like he gets to play with <a href="http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/sports/college/story/2015/mar/18/georgia-begins-spring-practice-new-offensive/293827/" target="_blank">a full deck of healthy cards</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>Tailbacks Nick Chubb, Sony Michel and Brendan Douglas were joined in the backfield by Keith Marshall and A.J. Turman, a pair whose 2014 seasons were derailed by injuries. Marshall, who rushed for 759 yards, 6.5 yards a carry and eight touchdowns as a freshman in 2012, is practicing with no limitations according to Richt.</p>
<p>&#8220;Keith Marshall is back,&#8221; Chubb told reporters. &#8220;I&#8217;m excited about him having a big year.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>That would be awesome.</p>
