Brent Swaggert has started 35 consecutive games at left tackle for the Bobcats
Quips
“I was watching our offensive line in practice (Thursday), and when I thought about playing next year without Brent Swaggert I started to hyperventilate. I’m not going to think about that any more.” - Mike Kramer
Countdown to Kickoff
14 days til MSU at Wyoming, 8/30
* * * DAILY NOTES * * *
* Jason Gathing heard the words every defensive player dreams of on Friday morning: “Want to play some tailback?” That question was posed to him by Bobcat coach Mike Kramer in response to the team’s continuing injury struggles, and the former standout prep running back responded with an enthusiastic yes. Kramer gave Gathing (pronounced with a short a, like rather) a look at tailback in both Friday practice sessions, and indicated that he may use him in Saturday morning’s scrimmage.
* The running back situation may become more clear early next week. David Mayfield was to return to campus on Saturday after completing summer school, and Bruce Molock’s eligibility status should be clarified by the NCAA on Tuesday. Mike Williams continues to perform well in practice, although he will miss the first two games with a suspension, and Molock had impressed until a concussion took him out of practice early this week. Jimmy Beal’s leg injury is expected to keep him out of practice into next week.
* Saturday’s scrimmage will begin at around 10 am in Bobcat Stadium. Kramer said the day will feature 40-50 plays.
* * * FRIDAY IN CAMP * * *
Jason Gathing had several impressive carries during the team segment of the morning practice in his debut at tailback... Corey Smith broke a long punt return during special teams work, as he has done several times during camp... Travis Lulay was sharp in the afternoon team session, which featured a deep strike to new tight end Sean Kelley... wind hampered much of the passing and kicking action on Friday afternoon.
