Friday: Links with regret

We'll recap the WAC media convention later today. Lots of good things to learn.

Story of the day:
Coach Pete reveals roster updates [Statesman]

At the WAC media convention yesterday, Coach Pete had a veritable laundry list of roster turnover to discuss, including some disappointing news about two potentially exciting recruits.
Linebacker Jack Sula of Carson, Calif., told the Broncos staff that he will not join the team because of family issues, Petersen said.

Van Drumgoole of Vallivue High, a speedy wide receiver, plans to attend a junior college instead of Boise State to improve his academic record, Petersen said. The Broncos had planned to grayshirt him.
Petersen also said that OL Paul Lucariello's BSU career is over due to medical reasons, and DL Phillip Edwards and DL Kapono Rawlins-Crivello will not be returning to the team. Spencer Gerke, an incoming will recruit, will be the only one to grayshirt out of the incoming class.

There was no word on WR Jeremy Childs, and there was even less of a word on the starting quarterback.

450 yards passing? Game-winning touchdown? Sounds like Dinwiddie to us.

Thanks for the tip, Graham Watson. Or rather, no thanks.

  1. I had read about Sula, Luciarello, Drumgoole and Crivello...but hadn't heard that about Edwards. Edwards could've helped out this year...too bad.

    We've got some good lookin' redshirts on the D-line though...so I'm over it.

  2. Yeah, I thought it was interesting that he won't be back because he graduated early. Glad to hear that it wasn't for any negative reason. Good luck to him.
