Looks like we just lost one of the likely 1st-stringers for this year at LB. He was participating in non-contact drills with the 1st team, went up for a pass, fell, and was landed on.

I was at Utah Valley Hospital today and I saw him being wheeled out to a BYU van in a wheelchair. He looked really sad.
