In practice on Tuesday, Brian Johnson looked as if he is progressing on fulfilling his promise of being at least 90% come Saturday when he is slated to start against the Aggies. Johnson made more downfield throws today than I have seen him make since injuring his shoulder. He did start out a little rusty today, but he got stronger as practice went on. I talked to him after the practice and you can hear that interview by clicking below.
Injury updates;
Gabe Long who is listed as questionable for Saturday's game participated in all of the drills and ran with the first team today, and looked good.
Joe Gianonni is out for Saturday's game. Coach Whittingham said that his ankle has regressed.
Koa Misi and Corey Seiuli are probable, Stevenson Sylvester will play with a broken hand.
After practice Coach Whittingham and some players were asked about quotes from a Las Vegas Review Journal article (read it here) where Rebel running back Frank Summers and Coach Mike Samford said the Utes looked scared to tackle Summers. Coach Whitt responded as you would expect a coach to, but it sure did seem to fire up some of the defensive players.
