From the Blogs: Rocky, Night School

Dave Reardon shares some unclassified info from today's practice, including bad news for Rocky Savaiigaea.

DT Rocky Savaiigaea will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a triceps tear Saturday.

Reardon also has news about Royce Pollard practicing with the first team and Keith AhSoon hoping to be back.

Stephen Tsai writes about Brent Rausch hanging in there and hints at some things to come for the UH offense.

The UH coaches went into overtime last night, working until 9:30 to prepare for today’s one-hour practice.
There are some changes planned, but not in the way that many fans imagine nor only in what head coach Greg McMackin hinted during yesterday’s news conference.
McMackin isn’t adverse to making innovative changes — remember when he revamped the defensive scheme for the 1999 O‘ahu Bowl against Oregon State? — and he has a lot of chips he has not used this season.

UPDATE: Tsai updates his blog with some bad news about Jovonte Taylor...

Wideout/kick returner Jovonte Taylor has withdrawn from UH after suffering serious symptoms from a viral infection. Taylor lost more than 20 pounds. He has withdrawn from his UH classes, and returned to his home in Los Angeles. He is expected to return in January. Taylor, a junior, already has used a redshirt season. He might seek a special exemption to make up for missing most of this season.
