Bryant Moniz and Kawika Ornellas will start against Nevada

About his concussion in the BSU game, Moniz said that he suffered only dizziness and no memory loss and joked:
"Not too much memories of the game. That's good." (HA)


About missing several practices due to his concussion, Moniz said:
"I feel good. My arm is rested. I guess there's a positive side to all of this." (HA)


About how Moniz had been bothered by arm fatigue last week (throwing between 100 and 150 passes every 2-hour practice) said:
"That's a concern with him. It will be the rest of the year." (HA)


HA Note: "Rolovich said the quarterbacks will expand their offseason conditioning program to include exercises designed to strengthen the small muscles in their throwing shoulders."


About how redshirt freshman walk-on Kawika Ornellas will start against Nevada, Rich Miano said:
"I've always felt from day one he has the speed, the size, the intensity, the smarts to be a big-time player for us. He's already earned his stripes on special teams. He's a very mature kid. He's a very focused kid, with a 3.8 GPA. He runs 4.4 in the 40-yard dash." (HA)


About how he will also be used at right CB, Lewis Walker said:
"I'm part of it. We'll see what happens when game time comes around." (HA)


About how they will miss Jeramy Bryant (his roommate on road trips), Walker said:
"We'll miss him a lot. He's the leader of the defensive secondary. He's a smart guy, a great football player, a good leader." (HA)


About how he initially injured his left biceps in training camp and aggravated the injury in the first half of the BSU game, Jeramy Bryant said:
"I played the whole (second half) with it. It was in pain, but I play for the Warriors." (HA)


About how the medical tests came to different conclusions about whether or not he has a tear, Bryant said:
"One said 'yes,' the other said 'it looks like a stretch.' (HA)


About how he will have to miss the Nevada game, Bryant said:
"There's no way I can even try to play. I can't get full extension yet. It's still really sore." (HA)
