  08/18/22 - Cam Ross, rSr/2026, Virginia, 5-10, 186 (DS#72 WR) + More +

  Wednesday's UConn football media availability started out with sour news; another tough break for the Huskies. Head coach Jim Mora shared that Cam Ross, a redshirt sophomore who was expected to be a top receiver for the team, broke his foot and will likely miss the 2022 season. Ross' injury came during Saturday's situational scrimmage. He caught a pass, his foot landed in awkward position and he rolled over it. Ross limped off the field Saturday, and sat in the back of the end zone with his left foot in a boot on Wednesday.

Ross broke his right foot after two games last season and was working his way back. "You just feel so bad for the kid," Mora said, "it happened to him last year and he worked so hard to get back. He was looking good, I think he was feeling confident, and it is his other foot. Obviously our prayers are with him and they'll get that thing fixed. Knowing Cam and his mindset, and his toughness and determination and character, he'll just put the work in and he'll come back and give it another go. So really tough deal for for him and certainly a blow for the team." Mora noted that Ross had developed into a strong leader for the team, and believes he will have a positive impact whether he plays or not. - Hartford Courant

  08/12/22 - Chandler Morris, rSr/2026, Virginia, 6-0, 192 (DS#999 QB) + More +

  Through the first seven practices of fall camp, TCU has stuck to its process of rotating quarterbacks with the first-team offense everyday. That changed Wednesday when Chandler Morris took snaps with the first-team offense in back-to-back days. Morris has also been the primary first-team quarterback in the installation part of practice that occurs before warmups. Head coach Sonny Dykes said he hoped to see some separation this week between Morris and senior quarterback Max Duggan. The decision to let Morris take all of the first-team reps in the open media portion seems like a significant development as the Horned Frogs get deeper into fall camp.

Morris capped the first-team series with a nice completion to tight end Geor'Quarius Spivey near the endzone. Dykes downplayed the decision to let Morris lead the first-team offense in consecutive days. "I don't think so," Dykes said when asked if it was an indication he was close to making a decision. "I wasn't even aware, I think it's just we're rolling through the stuff and getting guys reps. I think we'll have to start to narrow some stuff down pretty quickly. I don't think that's any indication of anything." - Fort Worth Star

  08/06/22 - Aaron Faumui, rSr/2024, Virginia, 6-1, 293 (DS#999 DT) + More +

  "A guy I'm extremely proud of is Aaron Faumui," Virginia coach Tony Elliott said. "He's a guy I challenged right out of the gate, because I know he's an alpha dog. Right? And I needed to challenge him." On Wednesday following the Cavaliers' first practice of training camp, the senior defensive lineman said he's never felt a responsibility on the field and within the locker room like the one he holds now. "Oh man," Faumui said. "Me and Coach Elliott had a lot of one-on-one talks, but most of it was him telling me I could take the role of being a leader, do right and not just on the field, but do right in class, get the boys together and all of that. So, he challenged me this year and I feel like I've been doing good." The 6-foot-1, 282-pound native of Hawaii hasn't had to lead previously for the Cavaliers, but is now a trusted veteran on their defensive line. He's the only senior in the position group to have spent his entire career with the Hoos. - Charlottesville Daily Progress

  08/05/22 - Lavel Davis Jr., Jr/2024, Virginia, 6-6, 219 (DS#999 WR) + More +

  Wide receiver Lavel Davis Jr. already had one breakout campaign as a freshman in 2020, but is in need of another after missing all of last season with an ACL injury. The 6-foot-7, 224-pounder averaged 25.8 yards per catch two years ago and is a big-play threat. The next few weeks will be important for him as he tries to find his place in a position group featuring Wicks, Keytaon Thompson and Billy Kemp. "Lavel seems like he's in a better place mentally, and physically, he looks better," than the spring, Kitchings said, "… so he's about a year and a half removed [from the injury], so he's moving around better and has got little more confidence in it. We've got these 30 practices and hopefully he'll be better going into Richmond than he is right now." - Charlottesville Daily Progress

  08/05/22 - Mike Hollins, rSr/2024, Virginia, 5-09, 204 (DS#999 RB) + More +

  With Elliott at the helm and new offensive coordinator Des Kitchings in place, the Cavaliers are seeking to better their balance on offense, which means a likely increased commitment to the run game is coming. They have better depth than they did this past spring, so UVa could potentially deploy a rotation at the position. But there's also the thought that one rusher could emerge as a standout, and according to running backs coach Keith Gaither, junior Mike Hollins possesses the skill set.

"I think Mike could be an every-down back," Gaither said. "It just depends if he continues to take the next step in his game. He's a good back now, but we need him to take his game from good to great, but the only way to do it is great practice habits. He hasn't learned that yet. He will, but he has the ability to be the every-down back if he buys in and truly immerses himself in this offense and in every aspect of becoming the best player he can be." Hollins, a Baton Rouge, La. native, averaged 4.3 yards per carry and scored two rushing touchdowns a season ago in a limited role. - Charlottesville Daily Progress

  08/03/22 - Ronnie Walker Jr., rSr/2024, Virginia, 5-10, 218 (DS#999 RB) + More +

  Virginia's group of running backs is deeper than it was during the spring, and the Cavaliers could get another boost sooner than they expected. "Ronnie Walker [Jr.] looks good," UVa coach Tony Elliott said of his fifth-year running back who was putting together an excellent set of practices in March before suffering a leg injury. "He's ahead of schedule," running backs coach Keith Gaither said.

According to Gaither, Walker Jr. was slated for an October return, but is on track now for late September. Last season, Walker Jr. carried the ball five times for 32 yards and two scores. It was his second year with the Cavaliers after transferring from Indiana, where he showed promise as a freshman in 2018 and rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns. "He'll still be down for fall camp," Elliott said. "He's not quite where he needs to be yet from a change-of-direction standpoint, but looks good straight ahead." - Charlottesville Daily Progress

  07/29/22 - Keytaon Thompson, rSr/2023, Virginia, 6-4, 218 (DS#47 WR) + More +

  A former quarterback who earned his undergrad degree from Mississippi State, Keytaon Thompson has gone all-in on becoming the best receiver he can be. New UVa coach Tony Elliott has made that easier. An ex-wideout himself, Elliott has been relentless in his critiques of the 6-foot-4, 217-pound New Orleans native. "The biggest area I've seen him grow is just accepting the challenge to become a technician at the position," Elliott said. "I already know you are a great football player. You have a great football mind. He started as a quarterback. He just has that sense. He has that knack. Now can we add the technical aspect of it to complete your game? "He has everything he needs to be dominant and successful at this level, but I desire for him to accomplish his goals beyond the University of Virginia, and I don't just want him to get to the NFL. I want him to stay in the NFL. He needs to just continue to improve the small technical aspects, because he has all the big things." Thompson admits he was a bit perplexed when every rep in practice was met with criticism.

He led UVa receivers with 78 catches in 2021 while finishing just 10 yards shy of becoming the sixth player in school history to post a 1,000-yard receiving season. But the finer points - route-running, sinking the hips just before the break, blocking - all get called out when he doesn't do them. "At first, I was kind of confused, like, 'What does this guy want from me? Is he serious?'" Thompson said of Elliott. "But I eventually was able to catch onto it, change my perspective and really benefit." Thompson's rare size and catch radius create mismatches against every team UVa will play this fall. But there's also his intelligence, forged through experience and a career filled with adaptation. - Roanoke Times
