Post-Practice Update

| | Comments (2) |

* Rick Neuheisel addressed the team following the last two-a-day session by talking about the need to stay focused and attentive at all times. This, after there were offsides issues during field goals.

* Quarterback Kevin Prince was again limited in the afternoon session - he didn't throw - but he moved around well and got a lot of conditioning in. He'll continue to be monitored, and they're not taking any unnecessary risks. But the fail-safe point is upon us, and he'll need to show progress soon.

* Prince told me that it was important that he be back in black, today, though. He needed to get some reps in, psychologically.

* Safety Rahim Moore had slight tightness in his groin and was on the sidelines for much of the afternoon practice, but it's nothing serious.

* Tight End Joseph Fauria returned for individual drills and is on schedule to return full-go shortly.

* Cornerback Sheldon Price left practice early with a dislocated index finger, but there's no news on the extent of the injury. I can't imagine he'd miss any time, even a day. We'll see.

* The timing on the passing game continues to impress, and I'm very interested to see how Prince works his way back in. Richard Brehaut still has his missteps - and Neuheisel talked about them post-practice - but there is no doubt that he has the physical tools. He delivered a beautiful pass to Cory Harkey and another to Ricky Marvray.

* That being said...Dalton Hilliard and Sean Westgate both made great interceptions, and on the second one, no idea where Brehaut was throwing the ball. The pass left Norm Chow shaking his head.

* Cassius Marsh hunted down Nick Crissman for a sack and got a lot of run from the coaches after. He's a player.
