It sounds like a long time, and coaches are going to want to get all the time they can, obviously, but I'm still doubtful that late season and postseason practices contribute as much as people think.  Once you learn the stuff, it's a matter of repetition at that point.  Once you hit the off-season, the benefits of the repetition gained in a two week period are wiped out, *in my experience.  [b]Some[/b] players might still be learning at the end of the season, but most - and probably all of the good ones - are just getting in extra reps.  Two weeks of extra reps going into the off-season is not much.  Two weeks of extra reps going into the regular season is a ton.

*My experience includes time watching DIII late/postseason practices and talking with a few friends who played DIII ball.  I'm sure there are others here with considerably more experience.  Maybe DI is astronomically different in this regard.  I think the offensive and defensive schemes can get just as complex at both levels, but I could be wrong.
