rumor has it

The team practiced hard on Tue and Wed of last week, but did only light walkthroughs on Thurs and Fri (and also had a signing appearance Friday afternoon/evening).

Supposedly this was a change from standard game week scheduling, giving more of a break leading into game.

Has anybody heard similar? Seems foolhardy given what we knew about NIU's shiftiness (and the fact we have so many young and new faces working together for the first time).
