Defense ahead of the offense?? WHAT A SHOCK!?!? 🙂

The biggest news is Andy Roof broke his thumb and will miss 4-6 weeks. That’s a big loss. He’s a big-time prospect for this year and had a starting guard position all his own, but this is a setback. 4-6 weeks puts us into mid-September to maybe even through the USC game. Not good. Brink was sick too, barely played at all with 3 snaps, and Rogers got the majority of the action. Oh yeah, Hall sprained his ankle as well, but Rogers will be the backup anyway so maybe not a huge loss (in fact, some have speculated that Hall is a transfer candidate, especially with Lopina on the scene).
Little Loren was woeful, just 1-for-4 in the scrimmage, and is he now losing his job to a guy who is a walk-on junior in Romeen Abdollmohammodi?? Hey, he is 6-0, 225, so maybe he’ll hold his own on kickoffs…
Boy has Loren hit the skids. Too bad. But I hope he doesn’t just give up, because this guy who’s winning the job right now is a complete unknown. It’s one thing to shine in a scrimmage, but let’s see what happens when September rolls around. Dobes did say it’s still open, so may the best man win. and I have to say I’m glad that the job is open. Everyone will tell you that Peanut isn’t a slam dunk by any stretch, and if the competition is tight, well, probably should go with the better player vs. the experience.
