Marcus Greaves was in Bend today for the Beavs' fourth overall fall camp practice and day No.1 in Bend. Check out the practice nuggets below!
---
- Thomas Tyner is getting closer and closer to being back into playing at his high level since his leave. Tyner was catching passes in open field and making defenders miss as he burned down the sideline.
- Kesi Ah-Hoy is starting to turn some heads, the true freshman linebacker has impressed the coaches early in camp and took reps with the first team defense today. He could be a big true freshman surprise.
- The offensive line had very strong protection today. Trent Moore has been given the nod as he has been taking reps with first team offense as starting right tackle.
- Wesley Payne was an all around playmaker today, Payne took a handful of reps with the first team defense and was laying huge hits and forcing a fumble in which the defense recovered. Payne continuing to build his case for a starting linebacker.
- Isaac Garcia has officially left the team due to his own reasons, coach Andersen confirmed.
- Noah Togiai looked 100% healthy today at practice. Just by watching it, appears he almost looks more athletic than before as he caught a very impressive one handed touchdown laser from Jake Luton.
- Luton seemed 100% confident in his offensive line today - no breakdowns in the protection. Luton stood in the pocket and delivered a perfect deep ball to Jordan Villamin all the way down to the 5 yard line.
- Darell Garretson went with the 2's today. He was consistent and moved the offense dumping off passes to Calvin Tyler but could not connect on a deep balls to Hodgins. Marcus McMaryion went with the third team offense today, and again was impressive with his feet, scoring a ten yard touchdown. McMaryion's reps were limited today.
- The young wide receiver corps is much improved, with Isaiah Hodgins and Arex "Champ" Flemings making big catches on 3rd downs to keep the offense on the field.
- Trevorris Johnson looks a little rusty on the field today, but like Tyner, he has spurts of play making ability. Today was also his first day in the running back rotation.
- Elu Aydon took reps today with the third team defense today. It was his first practice back from his extent focus on conditioning instead of practice.
- Sumner Houston looked as comfortable as I have seen his yet at the center position. He is starting to play and look like a true center and is taking command of the offensive line. Which is a huge plus for the Offense.
- Sophomore lineman Keli’i Montibon was a new face on the line today. He played great with the second team offense and is now in a position to challenge Trent Moore for the starting RT spot.
- The offense is starting to heat up and looks like a dangerous unit, with many weapons back, and with the addition of Tyner and Luton, this unit is looking like it is ready to score some serious points in the PAC.
- The first team offense looked like this:
QB: Luton
RB: Ryan Nall
WR: Isaiah Hodgins, Jordan Villamin, Trevon Bradford
TE: Noah Togiai
OL: Blake Brandel, Fred Lauina, Sumner Houston, Gus Lavaka, Trent Moore.
- First team defense
DL: Paisa Savea, Kalani Vakameilalo
LB: Manase Hungalu, Kesi Ah-Hoy, Bright Ugwoegbu, Titus Failauga
Corners: Xavier Crawford, Shawn Wilson, Dwayne Williams
Safeties: Jalen Moore, Brandon Arnold.
