The availability of Auburn starting center Nick Brahms is up in the air with two weeks to go until the Tigers' season opener against Mercer. Brahms, a sixth-year senior who chose to return for an additional season, has been dealing with an undisclosed in jury this preseason. He has been held out of practice for the last week, including two scrimmages and Saturday's practice at Jordan-Hare Stadium that was open to the media. "Still just kind of waiting that one out a little bit, see where he is at," Aubur n coach Bryan Harsin said. "At some point we'll figure out what his situation is, but just kind of let him settle in a little bit, heal up and then figure out what the final decision's gonna be."Brahms underwent knee surgery in December that kept him out of the Birmingham Bowl and limited him during spring practices. He was cleared to return this summer and opened fall camp as Auburn's first-team center. The Navarre, Fla., native is a former four-star prospect who has appeared in 40 games after r edshirting as a true freshman. He has 33 career starts at center, including 28 consecutive starts spanning the second half of the 2019 season and running through last season's Iron Bowl. - Birmingham News

The Orlando Sentinel previously reported that defensive end Landon Woodson has not been practicing with the team and at times has worn a knee brace on his left leg. Malzahn shared Saturday that Woodson is expected to miss the entire season with a knee in jury. "He is going to be not with us as far as playing but he is going to be assisting us in every possible [way]," Malzahn said. "He's a big part of our team." Malzahn said Woodson, who appeared in 12 games last season, will take part in senior-day fest ivities at the end of the regular season. "He's one of the unsung leaders, so he'll be helping the defense with all kinds of different things," the UCF coach said. "His knee is just not allowing him to be able to play but he'll be with us." - Orlando Sen tinel

Marshall running back Rasheen Ali will be away from the Thundering Herd indefinitely as he deals with an unidentified issue. Ali earned first-team All-Conference USA and Freshman All-America honors after leading the nation in rushing touchdowns as a fres hman. Ali ranked among the top running backs in the country during his breakout redshirt freshman season. He carried the ball 250 times for 1,401 yards rushing and 23 touchdowns, both marks that finished top 10 nationally. Ali was expected to be a dark h orse All-America candidate in 2022."As soon as he is mentally, physically and emotionally ready to return, he will be back," Marshall coach Charles Huff said in a statement. "Our team and staff are doing a great job of supporting him and we are lo oking forward to getting him back soon. We do not have an anticipated return date at this time. When we do, we will let everyone know. Out of privacy and respect for Rasheen and his family, we will not comment further on this topic until he is back with us." - CBSSports.com

Marshall running back Rasheen Ali, one of the nation's top freshman rushers last season, is taking a leave of absence for undisclosed reasons, coach Charles Huff said Tuesday.

Ali rushed for 1,401 yards and 23 touchdowns last season and was expected to be a big part of the offense again as Marshall enters its first season in the Sun Belt Conference. No tim etable was given for Ali's return. - AP College Football

It appears Tennessee football will finish preseason practice with Southern Cal transfer wide receiver Bru McCoy still not eligible. "There are some things that are out of my control and Bru's control and our administration's control in this process," coa ch Josh Heupel said. "Everybody on our side is working as hard as they possibly can to make sure we come to a resolution as quickly as possible and give the kid an opportunity to go play." McCoy must receive a release from USC or get a waiver from the NC AA to become eligible immediately. Either way, cooperation from USC would move the process along.McCoy's multiple transfers in the past is the obstacle. The NCAA allows players to transfer once without sitting out a season. In January 2019, McCoy enrolled at USC, transferred to Texas several weeks later for spring practice and then transferred back to USC that summer before playing a college game. "Our administration has done everything that they possibly can," Heupel said. "They've been great th roughout the entire process from the very beginning, and they're still working as hard as they can to give him the opportunity to play." - Knoxville News Sentinel

Gunner Gentry is facing another long year in the training room instead of making plays for the Cowboys on the field. The redshirt junior wide receiver suffered a knee injury on a non-contact play in practice this week and is expected to be out for Wyomin g's entire 2022 season. Gentry, the younger brother of former UW star and current Buffalo Bills wide receiver Tanner Gentry, had battled back from two knee surgeries that sidelined him last season. "It's heartbreaking," head coach Craig Bohl said after F riday's practice. "I mentioned to our football team it's an injury, he'll bounce back, and we've got to move forward as a team." Gentry tore the patellar tendon in his left knee during spring practice in 2021 and again last September. He hasn't appeared in a game for the Pokes since the 2020 season when he caught the only touchdown pass thrown by UW during the pandemic-shortened campaign. - Casper Star-Tribune

Penn State's transfer portal recruiting prior to the 2021 season included multiple key additions to its roster. The Nittany Lions and head coach James Franklin added Arnold Ebiketie - who would lead the team in sacks and go in the second round of the 202 2 NFL Draft - and Derrick Tangelo along the defensive line as starters. They added Eric Wilson, who picked up plenty of snaps at guard on offense, and John Lovett, who had a role in the run game. Not to mention A.J. Lytton, who was a key contributor on s pecial teams. All five of those players came in as part of a six-man transfer class and all five are no longer with the program. The first four either entered the draft or exhausted their eligibility, while Lytton transferred out of Penn State.The sixth member of the class is the lone player still with the Nittany Lions and has become one of the most frequently mentioned names out of fall camp as a breakout player - Johnny Dixon. Dixon joined the team after transferring out of South Carolina and made minimal impact, recording 10 tackles and two passes defended. Heading into his second year with the program, a flip has switched for Dixon, starting cornerback Joey Porter Jr said. "He's a different dude from when he came in to now," Porter Jr. said . "I feel like he really changed his attitude and his approach to the game. He's just been making plays all camp. It's a high ceiling for Johnny and it's gonna be a good year for him." - Centre Times

After sitting out the 2020 season due to NCAA-imposed transfer rules, Eyabi Anoma got an opportunity at UT-Martin, where he compiled 36 tackles (9 1/2 for a loss) and six sacks in an edge-rushing role while earning all-Ohio Valley Conference newcomer hon ors. The short timeline, however, could delay his chance of getting onto the field. Michigan is in the final stretch of fall camp, with the season opener just 16 days away on Sept. 3 against Colorado State. If he does prove himself on the field, Anoma co uld help bolster an unproven edge-rushing group impacted by the departures of Aidan Hutchinson and David Ojabo. Mike Morris and Taylor Upshaw are expected to lead, with a supporting cast comprised of Braiden McGregor and Jaylen Harrell, among others, but coaches have been frank about not having a star edge guy to lean on.As a result, they say, the production may come from a list of players, one that could include Anoma. The Baltimore native starred at St. Frances Academy in high school and was on ce considered a top-five player nationally for his length, athleticism and play on the field. In 2017, Biff Poggi, his high school coach who's now on Jim Harbaugh's staff at Michigan, referred to Anoma as "the best player I've ever coached." Michigan ori ginally recruited Anoma, but lost out to Alabama. Now, it appears, he's going to get a third chance at the FBS level, for a coach who showed interest in the very beginning. - Ann Arbor News

If nothing else has been made clear through the first two weeks of Kentucky football's preseason practices, fans can rest assured that new offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello loves his tight ends. "I really believe there's three or four or five in tha t room that are going to play on Sundays," he declared after the first practice. Entering camp, the depth chart already looked crowded. Returners Brenden Bates, Keaton Upshaw, Izayah Cummings and Jordan Dingle brought a combined 84 games, 14 starts, 51 c atches and eight touchdowns to the room. There did not appear to be any snaps available for a newcomer. Someone forgot to tell freshman Josh Kattus that he was destined for a redshirt season though. "I love him," Scangarello said. "I'm a big fan of Josh. He's got a long road to go, but he's got some special qualities. He's kind of become a favorite, I think, among the offense too as a young player. He's nasty, plays hard, plays to the whistle. "I think he aggravates the defensive guys at times, which I love. He's got a little something to him that's going to make him a really good football player here."With Upshaw battling a minor hamstring issue as he worked his way back from missing all of last season due to injury, Kattus was already receivin g some first-team reps in certain packages at UK's Fan Day open practice three days into preseason camp. Kattus arrived on campus with a reputation as a physical blocker, but he made an early statement with multiple catches during the 11-on-11 periods th at afternoon. It quickly became apparent that Kattus was not only a temporary injury-replacement, either. "He's turned heads ever since he got here," quarterback Will Levis said. "Obviously, not the biggest dude at the tight end position, but he's got a really good feel for the game. He's a smart kid, physical kid, brings the energy. "...I think he'll get some burn this year. He's a good player. I trust him. He's as prepared as any of the freshmen we have going into practice." - Herald Leader

Michigan has added graduate transfer Eyabi Anoma, a top-rated defensive end coming out of high school in 2018 who has been at Alabama, then Houston and Tennessee-Martin. Anoma's name appeared in the University of Michigan directory as a student in the Sc hool of Social Work on Wednesday, and his status as a graduate transfer was confirmed to The Detroit News early Thursday by Michigan football spokesman Dave Ablauf. Anoma will be immediately eligible for the Wolverines, whose season opens Sept. 3 against Colorado State.Anoma was a five-star recruit out of St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, a school that has produced several current Michigan players, including running back Blake Corum and linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green. Michigan associate head footba ll coach Biff Poggi had been St. Frances' head coach. Anoma shared a message Thursday morning on Twitter about his latest move, saying he is grateful for "all the positive and negative remarks" and is dedicating the rest of his football career to his gra ndmother. "She would have been happy I graduated and turned things around," Anoma wrote. - Detroit News

Eyabi Anoma, a five-star member of the 2018 Crimson Tide signing class, is now headed to Michigan, according to On3.com. It would be the fourth stop in a college career that began with high potential. The Baltimore product was the No. 4 overall recruit i n the 247Sports composite for 2018, behind just Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields and Xavier Thomas (Clemson). Anoma had just nine tackles in 12 appearances as a freshman in Tuscaloosa before being dismissed from Alabama. "We have a law that protects player s and students in what you can and can't say," Nick Saban said when asked about Anoma in August 2019. "The guy was dismissed from school, and that's really all I can say about it." Anoma then went to Houston but never appeared in a game before transferri ng to UT-Martin.There he played for head coach Jason Simpson - the father of Alabama freshman quarterback Ty Simpson. After sitting out the 2020 season, Anoma made the OVC's All-Newcomer team with 36 tackles, 9.5 of which were for a loss including six sacks. His best game was an eight-tackle (4.5 for loss) performance against Austin Peay. Anoma entered the transfer portal for a third time earlier this week. - Birmingham News
