Wynn returns, offense struggles
Jordan Wynn returned to the practice field Friday morning, however, the offense struggled yet again, erasing much of the progress that had been made since Tuesday's scrimmage.
Of course, Wynn was off much of the day and that should be expected. He's been ill the past few days and I'm sure he's not feeling pretty hot, even after much rest the last 48 or so hours. Whittingham conceded as much, saying Wynn was rusty for much of the morning.
But the offense continues to lag behind the defense.
The Utes will take the field again today for the afternoon session and hopefully the performance is a bit more inspired. Wynn, who's still on a pass count, will participate, but won't pass.
On the injury front, defensive lineman Lei Talamaivao, who's out with a foot injury, is only expected to be out 2-3 weeks, as further evaluation found nothing serious with his injury, so he won't need surgery.
Tauni Vakapuna sat out the day with a swelled knee, but should be back soon.

It's that time of fall camp where
You wonder if there’s going to be a healthy body left to start the season. I guess these injuries are normal, but it sure feels brutal prior to a season that holds so much anticipation (and little margin for error).
Yeah...
Camp can be brutal. I think all these players are getting to the point where they want the season to start and camp is beginning to take its toll on the entire team. Probably explains the effort today, especially considering it’s toward the end of the week.
I guess we will have to win games 17-14 and 14 -10. defense wins championships.
Public Enemy #1 and enjoying every minute of it.
