He has now been the first string LT for a week and 10 practices. I guess I am going to have to figure a way up to West Lafayette for their first game. We promised him that one of us (mom or dad) would be there for his first start; it looks like that is going to happen on August 30th. Mom has school vb commitments she can't miss.
Wow.

Most everything past week three is tba...
Yesterday he pulled a hip flexor playing center with the 2's. It is kind of ironic, because he was mentioned by the head coach in the post practice interview of the head coach. In the video, you can see him limping past the head coach, talking to the OC.
Hopefully, with treatment, he'll be ok. He might get to skip today's practice in order to play in the fall scrimmage on Saturday.
And the head coach did mention that if the season started today, he would be the starter at left tackle...

He did not practice in the morning two a day today; my guess is he won't practice this afternoon in the hope that he can scrimmage tomorrow.
I just got a text back from him where he stated that he is better, but still sore.

What he needs is a day at the beach.
