No felony robbery charges for UCLA football player Ishmael Adams
Adams, suspended since the beginning of the season, was reinstated Tuesday just as Bruins coach Jim Mora announced at a news conference that Moreau would miss the remainder of the season with a foot injury.
“Mora was blunt in disclosing Jack”s injury to reporters after UCLA”s practice on Wednesday.
If Mahoney gets the nod, he’ll be the third player to start at quarterback for Syracuse (3-0) this season.
Orange offensive coordinator Tim Lester said Tuesday that Mahoney, a junior college transfer who enrolled in January and had been the scout team quarterback as recently as last week, was taking most of the first-team reps in practice ahead of Austin Wilson. “Isaak’s played big games-he played against Stanford when [Eric Kendricks] got hurt [in 2013]”.
The 2014 defeat to the Huskies started a seven-game stretch to end the season that saw Cal lose six times and finish 5-7 after starting 4-1.
The Bruins’ top two defenders on the tackle charts, Isaako Savaiinaea and Jayon Brown, are both reserve players behind Jack and sophomore Kenny Young. He did about as well as any linebacker could do in that role. Redshirt freshman Will Grier will take Harris’ spot on Saturday.
The UCLA Bruins are undefeated through three weeks of football, and will likely miss their dominant linebacker for the rest of the season.
Saturday afternoon’s game in Seattle gives the Bears a chance at some redemption.
Now without Jack, UCLA will face several high-powered passing attacks in its race for the Pac-12 title.
Whatever the injury, we first and foremost wish Myles Jack all the best and hope for a speedy and complete recovery, and that this merely delays his incredible future a bit without altering it in any other way. He also lines up in the slot to cover receivers, showcasing unusual speed for a linebacker. He has the option of rehabbing and returning to UCLA next season as a senior in order to have a full season healthy before going pro. Now it’s time to deliver on the field in one of the nation’s toughest leagues. Adams, a first-team All-Pac-12 cornerback last season, had lost his job as a starter but had been tabbed as the nickel back in passing situations. “The most important thing is that you’ve got to know what you want”.
A year after Wilson departed Fresno, the Bruins returned to sign four-star running back Bolu Olorunfunmi of rival Clovis North High School.
Coach Jim McElwain said Harris and Tabor made “choices”.
