Some Free practice info

[echeese]

Don't want to run afowl of the man, this is free stuff from 24/7 and my guy Jeff Howe:

http://texas.247sports.com/Article/Texas-Longhorns-spring-practice-No-6-features-OL-shuffling-Brand-52021956

-- An ankle injury suffered by Zach Shackelford in Saturday’s scrimmage and Brandon Hodges having to miss practice time to deal with academic issues has led to some shuffling along the offensive line. The first time the No. 1 offense took the field field it featured Jake McMillon sliding over to center with Elijah Rodriguez at right guard and Tristan Nickelson still at right tackle. The second time the first unit took the field it was a line featuring Rodriguez at center, McMillon at right guard and Denzel Okafor at right tackle.

-- The biggest change on defense came in the secondary where Brandon Jones ran out as the No. 1 boundary safety over John Bonney. DeShon Elliott was still the field safety. Jones had been working behind Elliott through the scrimmage on Saturday and this is the first time (to my knowledge) he’s gotten some work with the first unit.

Just a teaser, more info on the link and a video with Mr Howe giving his fast paced recap of practice so far.

-- The most notable highlight came from Lil'Jordan Humphrey, who caught a quick hitch and made Eric Cuffee miss a tackle in space before ripping off a big gain.

It's been reported that the ankle injury will keep Shack out for the rest of spring practice. About to be a lot of mix and matching up front on the OL.

Shack needs to work on his balance and lower leg strength. ..seems to

always have foot/ankle issues. Or he needs to avoid 300 pound DTs stomping his feet!

This is not really my field, but high ankle sprains compare to Achilles tears - for length of time to heal.  Those of you that have had either can confirm that, sometimes, you are never the same.  It depends, of course, on the individual but that area of weakness can be permanent.

Where is that story you've been promising us? Just make it up if you have to. I'm bored.

It's still being triangulated.
