Reports: Keli Lawson out for spring

Pry announced Tuesday morning that starting Will linebacker Keli Lawson, who had surgery for an undisclosed injury, will miss the 15 spring practices that begin Friday.

Star linebacker coach Shawn Quinn said on Feb. 20 that Lawson looked "great right now" during winter workouts and noted Lawson "was fresher" in the bowl win over Tulane.

Pry echoed that sentiment Tuesday.

"And Keli is really certainly a good athlete and had a great winter, let me say that," Pry said. "Low pad level, really looked ... he was working at a high level. Maybe the best I've seen him since I've been here, just knee bend and explosiveness and really had a good winter for us."

Damn, I feel Lawson could have used the practice reps. Get well soon!

Another white bronco? The first one didn't go too far.
