Wednesday morning tidbits
Posted by Bob Condotta
Here's my story for today, which is on Carl Bonnell and the quarterback battle.
As the story details, Bonnell gave a little thought to just packing it in when he found out Jake Locker was named the starter heading into spring practice but instead decided to stick it out and as he said make it "the funnest'' experience of his career.
He is also, he says, in the best shape of his career. All good news for a UW team that is still dangerously thin in depth at the most important position in the game. I've gotten a couple of responses saying stories like this, quoting Bonnell as saying he thought about quitting, are just revving up controversy. But judging by the amount of e-mail I've gotten on this topic, I think it's newsworthy. And I always think the mindset of any of the players at such an important position is worth detailing.
There's also the camp glance, which details the injury situations and has a little info on E.J. Savannah.
IN OTHER NEWS:
--- We touched on this yesterday and suddenly there are a ton of stories out there about Reggie Williams' seemingly tenuous future with Jacksonville. Unfortunatelly, Reggie's quote in this story really couldn't make him sound worse, as he comes off as if he feels no urgency about the situation at all, which is obviously what the coaching staff wants him to feel.
--- Here's more on Isaiah Stanback's struggle to get on the field in Dallas. This is a particularly good piece detailing all the roster options Dallas has in regards to Stanback.
--- Here's an update on the 49ers with a note at the bottom about Dashon Goldson making a nice play.
--- In some news around the Pac-10, here's an update from UCLA on receiver Joe Cowan, the son of former UW QB Tim Cowan.
--- Here's an interesting column from John Canzano at the Oregonian asking why no one is putting more pressure on Mike Bellotti, given what's happened to the Ducks the last few seasons.
