Crozier done for year

feel for the kid. Pratt is now our most experienced starter up front. Think about that.

>>With Crozier's injury and Hopkins no longer starting, the Huskies top two offensive linemen in terms of career starts won't be with the top unit on Saturday as each of them have started 18 career games. Reserve tackle Brendan Vechery has made 15 career start, most of them at center. This makes redshirt sophomore left tackle Matt Peart the most experienced among the first team offensive line based on career starts.<<

Believe you meant Peart. This is the second season ending knee injury for Crozier. Not good.

Vechery seemed decent the year he played center - odd that he sits as a tackle instead of him and Oak playing a some combination of center and guard.

I wondered if with Crozier out for the year they wouldn't consider moving Vachery back,but from Edsall's comments about Oak it doesn't sound like that will happen.

I'm sure things two weeks from now will look totally different again. The only hope this season has is staying healthy so injuries starting to pile up is bad news.

RS Jr with two knee operations.

Just about 100% he doesn't play again?

This news & the Hartford Courant article in this morning's edition has caused an expectation reset in my mind. My original hope of a 6-6 bowl eligible season has been altered. With Crozier out for the season & Mayala out for 4-6 weeks, along with so many freshman earning playing time, this looks like a true rebuilding year with the associated learning curve as HCRE & Co. integrate their system & find the best players on the roster to implement it. There will be peaks & valleys in on-field play. I am no longer looking at wins & losses, just week to week improvement with a look ahead to next season as more of a breakout year.
