per the STrib:

Mitch Leidner knew life without Maxx Williams and David Cobb would be difficult for the Gophers, but it didn’t quite hit the junior quarterback until the first day of captains’ practice, in late January.

“We were throwing [the ball] around, and we were like, ‘Holy Cow, we’ve got some work to do,’ ” Leidner said.

After five weeks of those player-led workouts, Leidner felt much better about the team’s 2015 prospects. By Tuesday night, after the team’s first official spring practice, he sounded as if he wished the Sept. 3 season opener against TCU were coming this weekend.

“I thought the guys did a good job today,” Leidner said. “It’s just something to keep building from, and keep building into the summer and into fall camp.”
