CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami football team opened its 2010 fall camp Thursday morning with a spirited two-hour practice session under warm conditions on the Greentree Practice Fields.
With the season-opener against Florida A&M just 28 days out, the Hurricanes took to the practice fields in preparation for what proves to be a memorable season in South Florida. The Hurricanes looked sharp despite a heat index that nearly reached triple-digits before 10 a.m.
