A change from the "see ball, get ball", as Hawkins said, is quite welcome. Has to improve our odds a bit. ... I'd also love to see Leota in the mix ... a goal line FB who could throw?

This press release lost me. Far too long. I'm not even sure what this means, beyond putting a ribbon on existing games.

Apparently the very successful Aztec team lost a lot of players, 7 in NFL camps right now. Lost almost their whole offensive line? Coach Long referred to "inexperienced depth".

Will this game be televised?

I know we had maybe the whole team here this summer. Does anyone know if the players held organized 7 on 7 or 11 on 11s?

San Diego News Daily one hour ago posted an update. Claimed no new cases, but 10 players sitting out who had gloves and surgical masks on, away from the field. They have 110 players, 90 at practice. That gets to that 15 number. People can get a booster shot.

Too risky. I'd say vaccinate the whole team unless they have ironclad proof of current shots. With a med school, we blow this and we look baaaaad. Blue should be all over this.

And what is our risk of contamination during the game?

Which is why the wipe down and precaution... imagine if their QB or other key people had to sit out gameday.

I believe they said they'll have to see how well the drugs work. It sounds like these guys will be back, and the coach said it would have been much worse if the infections came a seek before the game.

UPDATE: SDSU cancels Monday night practice as 2 more players are confirmed infected with the virus. The two new players infected have not been identified.

The program is also disinfecting the weight room, etc., to try to slow the spread.

I thought I read their O line is green, and their most experienced lineman is out right now with CP.

+1

I've also seen where they have several receivers with hamstring injuries.

They also apparently have had a number of foot injuries they attribute to new, thinner shoes with less support, and the turfs that allow quicker cuts.

He could have been a big fish here, and in the FCS.

Dr. Mike, highly subjective question here... but if you went to an early practice last year, did you sense a difference compared to this year?

FWIW, Saturday scrimmage at Aggie Stadium, 5.30 start time. Open to the public no cost for parking.

I like it.

Dr. Mike, good to hear about the progress. Do we look relatively healthy?

Shirts. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Maybe we'll see some new gear before the season starts.

That's an interesting question. It sure seems like they made an effort here to sell the story that he left on his own and the RB coach didn't answer his calls for 2 months??? Hard to imagine a player with his stats and youth being ignored.

As far as UCLA, they aren't innocent, they have poached or recruited on the DL. I think the LAT or his UCLA bio mention a family tie to UCLA.

New additions to the roster?

Nick Menchero, WR, All Bay Area FB, St. Ign. HS.

Jon Amadi, DB, 5'11", Jesuit, put up some big numbers at WR.

Mason Moe, DB, West Hills College.

Mitch McCabe, OL, 6'4", St. Francis HS.

A Los Angeles Times article claims Kelly called RB coach DeShaun Foster for 2 months, trying to reach him.

He's getting a lot of carries as other Bruin RBs are out for various reasons.

Good luck to the young man.

Maybe we make $$ and royalties on any deals... looks like this is a local group running under the umbrella of Learfield. A former Sacto pro soccer guy is heading this up.
