Also Per Chip regarding todays Scrimmage:

"It just wrapped up... I've already heard Dylan Haines suffered what appeared to be a knee injury.."

* Full-blown tackle scrimmage today around 10:30 am to 12:30 pm with a lot of high school prospects competing at Texas Relays looking on.

* WR John Burt did not take part in the scrimmage because he's running hurdles in the Texas Relays today.

Media was not allowed to watch the scrimmage, but from those who were in attendance, here's what we were told:

* S Dylan Haines left the field (and did not return) with what appeared to be a knee injury.

* OL Alex Anderson also left the field (and did not return) with what appeared to be a nasty ankle sprain.

* Offense was running high-tempo and got in 165 plays during the two-hour scrimmage.

* The offense appeared to get the better of the defense overall, although CB Antwuan Davis recorded 2 INTs and Malik Jefferson had a couple big stops near the goal line.

* Tyrone Swoopes worked with the offense first and then Shane Buechele. No other QBs got reps.

* Swoopes ran for a couple TDs and also threw a TD pass to Caleb Bluiett.

* Buechele ran several bootlegs and was the better passer on the day. He threw a TD pass on a seam route inside the 20 to Lorenzo Joe. Buechele had a couple deep passes that were dropped by receivers, including one in the corner of the end zone.

* DeAndre McNeal caught a number of passes - as did Bluiett. Offense was focusing on the tight end a lot today.

* Collin Johnson caught the third-most passes on the day (behind McNeal and Bluiett) with Burt out of action. Johnson caught an impressive, 20-yard curl route from Swoopes.

* Also hearing Armanti Foreman had a good overall week of practice and is paying much closer attention to detail, especially when it comes to downfield blocking.

* Chris Warren ran the ball well, and D'Onta Foreman scored on a TD run while grabbing his abdominal muscle. Charlie Strong told him he was fine and to get in shape.

* Roderick Bernard continues to play a big role as a change of pace RB. Today he got mostly jet sweeps but made big plays.

* The field goal unit did not have a good day. Apparently, there were problems with the snaps that didn't improve until Jak Holbrook apparently replaced Kyle Ashby.

* Both kickers - Evan Moore and Jon Coppens - struggled with FGs, even when the snap was OK, and coaches are already looking into transfer candidates (possibly from Australia - where Texas found P Michael Dickson).
