Okayfor spring practice and next year,  but the young man will miss the opportunity to play in an awesome bowl game. Hate that for him 

He didn't play at all this season though.

I thought he had some s.t. time. Anyway,  it's a different feeling being suited up and ready to go instead of just being a spectator.

According to the Brainiacs, Moro Ojomo suffered a leg/ankle injury in bowl practice. Injury was so severe they had to take him to the hospital.

 Alvonte Woodard broke his collarbone in a collision during practice.

247 is reporting that Woodard has a sprained shoulder and Ojomo has a sprained ankle. Both are supposedly rehabbing to be available in two weeks. Major differences between those two reports.

Well, brainiacs is reporting the same thing. Only their's is an update to an earlier report. I just didn't post it here.

For the record, they are hoping both can play in the Sugar Bowl, but thats not a given.

Do either of these guys actually play?  STers?

Typically, this is the time when they'd get some meaningful playing time (in the bowl game). So I hope they can recover fast enough to play in the Sugar. That said, even if they do, they will not have practiced through the whole period so there would be some rust to kick off.

I hope he is better than the s*** show that was UCLA this season.  Definitely need some grad transfers for next season.

just read the article which said he had actually transferred from Texas Tech to UCLA.  Weird.

There is some chatter that both our frosh QBs are looking around. Nothing eminent and coaches are on it, but it could happen with one or the other.

 

[texasdalton]

I hope rising stays.

I would bet that Sam is going to leave for the NFL next year. It’s a two year wait for any of our Qbs. Then again Sam is always hurt.

If Sam does not quit missing wide open receivers he will never make an NFL roster. Even though the pro game is changing, the QB's job there will always be to pass the ball.The pros wont give a damn how well he runs.

That said, it looks to me like he will be damned hard to displace the next 2 years. I dont blame the freshmen QB's for starting to look around.It is one thing to wait 2 years, but 3 is too much.

And right there is how a QB room gets depleted.  I really hope Cam Rising strikes around because I think he is going to be very good. He just looks like he has an innate feel for the game.  I dont know much about Thompson, but he is extremely athletic.

QBs would be best if they stayed 4 years and started Jr/Sr. Very few guys and no one on our roster will be NFL ready in less than 4. Heck, Vince was here 4 years and was only super status for a season and a half. Sam's no where close to being NFL ready.
