Spring football injuries

Probably like last year

It will mostly consist of the new Ankle and Knee Spearing drill that Matt Luke came up with

Haven't seen an update on the WR's.

Pretty much the same spring game for the past 4 years no actual game.

It's NEVER been an actual game. It's a scrimmage at best.

If we can get healthy by the beginning of the season, we shouldn't be in bad shape with the offensive line.

LT- Tunsil, Morris and Liggins. (with Fahn Cooper being the number 2 choice, with Conyers moving into RT)
Should give Liggins his red shirt season and time to get adjusted to the o-line)

LG- Taylor, A. Morris and Bouldin (Taylor will probably be in better health and get the start)

C- Still, Rawlings and Feeley (Rawlings played some tackle in the spring, but I believe he moves into the #2 spot at center

RG- Bell, Patterson and Sims (don't know if Bell keeps the starting position)

RT- Cooper, Conyers and D. Johnson

You will have Talbot Buys and Putnam as emergency guys. Putnam is still working on his strength and conditioning. He had back to back knee injuries in high school. He need another year. Buys is basically a practice guy, but you never know.

Givens and Howard will come in and take a red shirt and continue the trend of longer and leaner o-linemen that include Conyers and Rawlings. All need to get to 305-315lbs of muscle to be fully effective.

The guard positions are in good shape with 3 quality guys and a couple of 3 stars for back up. The key is to go out and grab some tackles next season. I believe the changes in scheme were to better adapt to our huge guards and not having them pull and trap as often. They were very good at it, so stop trying. In the future we could see it change again when these leaner and longer players work into those positions.
