DAVID FLORES: Cardinals' football remains work in progress this
The way University of the Incarnate Word football coach Mike Santiago sees it, starting a football program from scratch is a lot like building a house.
“You lay the foundation and you go from there,” Santiago said Tuesday. “We laid the foundation last year and now we’re ready to start working on the framing to put up the walls. But we’re not anywhere close to finishing the house.”
UIW will put on its hard hats for the first time since November on Thursday when it starts spring training at Benson Stadium, where the Cardinals open their second season against Langston (Okla.) State on Aug. 28.
Infamous former Chargers quarterback Ryan Leaf will plead guilty to felony prescription drug charges and will receive 10 years of probation and a $20,000 fine as part of a plea deal reached yesterday with his attorney, a Texas prosecutor said.
The deal doesn’t include prison time largely because his alleged burglary victim asked prosecutors not to pursue charges against him, said James Farren, the prosecutor in Randall County, Texas.
A Texas judge will have final say on the plea deal recommendation.
Farren expects Leaf to arrive in Randall County next week to enter his plea. He said he does not expect Leaf to cancel the agreement, which could have turned out much worse for him. Leaf, 33, faced 20 years in prison on the burglary charge alone.
