Flowery Branch football coach Chris Griffin had to debate what was best for his program when it came to conducting spring drills this month, which is an opportunity for every school to hit the gridiron for a couple weeks to do some early evaluating of talent. For the Falcons, it was a tough decision under the new Georgia High School Association guidelines that gives two formats coaches can follow.
