Yes. Soto is out with some sort of paperwork issue. Not sure what happened.

Also Wempa was carted off the field at practice today with some sort knee injury. Didn't look pretty. Hopefully not season ending.

It was actually Utterback. He had something with his ankle

Ah. Sorry it was practice jersey 74. I thought Utterback was 73. I guess one of the many differences on this years team.

[Mr.KnowItAll]

Utterback has a high and low ankle sprain. And McVey is out this week as well. And Harmon is out as well.

McVey hasn't practiced since the spring. He did walk though on TUE for the first time.

With both McVey and Soto out I see why Baxley is now at TE. He probably would have redshirted this year as an lineman. Does anyone know the status on Soto? Hope he doesn't have to miss the whole year due to eligibility issues.

Any idea when the weekly game notes will be released showing the starters and 2-deep?

He has practiced in non contact drills some but he hasn't put pads on since spring for sure.

Also I Eric Arnold and Marcus Malbrough won't be playing. Both eligibility issues. Jestin White will start for Malbrough.

Eligibility for 1 game or the season?

[cardinal]

I know people are saying McVey is hurt but is he out? I don't like the move of Ploch to tight end it seems we are stacked there with McVey, Soto, and Hannah. I sure would like to see Hannah get more touches somehow. He is a big athletic kid, as are Ploch and McVey. I haven't seen Soto yet but I hear he is awfully good as well.

Baxley was for sure going to be redshirted if on the OL....He will now be #22 this weekend.

[puddin tane]

all these tight ends....what...we switched to the veer????

the 'flyin' puddin' offense has 1 running play...qb kneel down when we run out the clock to seal the W!!!....

Chunk that tater!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CardAmbassador]

Tight ends catch the ball too...

[coachacola]

The roster on the LU website has been updated. Ploch is listed as a WR, Baxley is a TE, Chavis and freshman Hargis are listed as LBs.

Richard Alfonso is now on the roster as a 6'0 260 offensive lineman. George Orebe is a RS-SO defensive back from Houston. Are both these guys walkons?

So for Saturday's game we know these guys are out: Beard, Malbrough, Soto, McVey and Arnold. Anymore players that might not play or will be playing banged up?

[Mike t]

Soto is just out for one game, same as malbrough.

McVey is out for farther notice. I could see him returning in the next few weeks depending on how his hamstring holds up.

They moved Ploch to TE because that's what he played in spring. He knows the routes better then Baxley does.

From what I have seen Baxley is mostly a blocking TE with about 5 or 6 routes. He is a good add to the TE's because from what I have seen they have trouble with blocking. Hannah and Ploch are fast and run good routes, well on the other hand Soto and Baxley are not the fastest but are both very tall and a good target.

[MLUCO76]

Ploch to TE? Has he practiced there since spring? With all of these changes, what does the depth look like at tight end to start the year?

[/quote]

No, in spring ball he was a TE. He moved to WR at the start of this year.

The TE depth looks like: Hannah, Baxley/Ploch, Henderson

[CardAmbassador]

Thats why we have such a big roster I suppose. We have a pretty deep TE spot and the two notables Soto and McVey aren't even available.
