The spring could allow Dunn to distance himself from incoming freshmen Adam Hall and Chris Simms, the son of former NLF quarterback Phil Simms and the USA Today national offensive player of the year. Brown said he decided to start spring practice early in part to keep the momentum of last season, which ended with a Cotton Bowl victory over Mississippi State. Brown says the Longhorns' enthusiasm is much better than it was a year ago when he took over a team that went 4-7 in 1997 under John Mackovic. The Longhorns will practice 11 times before taking a week off from March 12-20 for spring break. The annual spring scrimmage is scheduled for March 27.
All practices are open to the public.
