From the Blogs, and Dick Tomey

From UH Sports Extra, Dave Reardon writes that Colt Brennan and Adam Leonard did well in practice today. Colt had no noticeable sign of an injury.

From The Warrior Beat, Stephen Tsai writes that Calvin Roberts will replace Keenan Jones, who is sick, on the travel roster. Also, Samson Satele is suffering from a pinched nerve in his neck, according to his agent Leo Goeas.

And The Warrior Insider has a bunch of profiles of possible Warrior recruits. Lots of good stuff.

And finally, Dick Tomey had some good things to say about UH in his weekly press conference. Here's an excerpt:
Question: Will your defense change depending on who is quarterbacking?

No. The ball comes out of Colt’s hands a little quicker, but Tyler has been in the system for four years and he knows it very well. It doesn’t matter who is playing, the problem is the same. They are both terrific players.

This may be shocking, but the first thing we have to do is stop the run and the shovel pass. If they can run the ball at will on you and throw the shovel pass on you, then in the fourth quarter, if you are trying to win, like Louisiana Tech was, it is impossible to call defenses. If you can stop the run then you have a better chance.

    Every week, we always hear how Brennan is suffering no ill effects but every week it becomes a problem. I'm thinking they are just giving us lip service for the most part.

    And does Tomey really think this was the best defense he's seen? I mean, we did lose 3 guys who are now in the pros. And almost all the rest are returnees from last year.

    Also, the profiles of the recruits is why Brennan has been so huge for this program not just this year but probably a lot of years to come.

    brennan seems a lot healthier this week. he mentioned that he had some bad luck in practices, aggravating the ankle on freak plays, but all the reports and observations from dave and steve and others this week are encouraging.
