MAPLE GROVE, Minn. (AP) — Minnesota Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier says he's confident enough in the team's leadership that the lockout won't put preparations for the next season behind whenever the NFL is back to business.

Frazier spoke Wednesday at Rush Creek Golf Club before the team's annual charity golf event to benefit the Vikings Children's Fund.

He said he's pleased by the way the organization "has done a lot of things right" this spring during the league's first work stoppage since 1987.

Frazier said the Vikings are poised for all sorts of scenarios for a normal, delayed or abbreviated training camp and regular season, depending on whether talks between the owners and players progress this summer toward a new agreement.
