Rose-Hulman Sports Information Director Kevin Lanke says the national spotlight has also been shining brightly. He says crews from The NFL Network, Sirius Satellite Radio, ESPN, CBS, Fox Sports and other statewide and national media have been to camp.

Lanke says this week's night practice also drew big crowds. He says Colts Coach Tony Dungy has indicated that he might hold more night practices next week if the weather stays hot.

The Colts are planning to hold a Blue & White scrimmage tomorrow in Terre Haute and it will be Cheerleader and Family Day.

Lanke says several Saturday practices are planned to give fans from around the state a chance to see the Colts in action.Listen
