Thursday conference

Danny Lansanah is going to play on Saturday. He has practiced this week and Randy Edsall said he is ready to go. That's good news for the defense.

Less good news on Ryan Henegan, he is in practice but it is out for Saturday. He is starting to practice however.

Lawrence Green is definitely out Saturday, but Edsall did say he expects Green to return this year. He gave no indication how long however.

Andre Dixon is in the mix to get some carries at running back and has worked with the second team. Corey Stringer is on the scout team.

7:43 PM Updates:

Scout team players of the week are as follows: Nathan Sherr (offense), Doc Goudreau (defense) and John Yurek (special teams). Who are they? I don't know either.

Had to check the roster. Goudreau is a redshirt freshman from Wisconsin. Sherr a freshman running back from Lynfield, Mass. and Yurek is a freshman from Greencastle, Pa. All are walk-ons.

Anyhow, here are some parking pass directions:
