"We didn't play well," linebackers coach Bob Gregory said while meeting with reporters on a Wednesday conference call. "I don't know if it was one thing I can point to."

He doesn't know if it's one thing he can point to?

Riiiight Bobby.

    "You don't want to burn a kid's year to be on just kickoffs," Gregory said. "You want to make sure a kid can contribute. It's a tricky situation."

    So Bob has been coaching for how long and he learned that lesson with BBK? Why Jimmy, Why?

    He's right. TWO things - both thumbs pointing right back at himself.

    BBK wasn’t just on kickoffs. He was the top reserve LB from the middle of the season on. He started vs Oregon. That said, it definitely would have been nice if he had redshirted.

    That was his sophomore year. Lawyer and Constantine were above BBK in the pecking order BBK's freshman year. I don't think he started against Oregon, but he did come in sometime in middle of the game, made a few tackles, and looked really fast and good. His sophomore year, he was second reserve, behind Beavers (who replaced Azeem), and gave up a bad TD at Oregon--although 70-21 was already in progress.

    BBK's freshman year was almost entirely special teams, with a series here and there in a couple of games.

    No. He started bs Oregon. From that point on he was first LB off the bench ahead of Lawyer and Constantine. 2016 is his sophomore year.

    You're looking at the first play from scrimmage, Oregon at Washington, 2015. It's on YouTube. On the left is 47, Scott Lawyer. On the right is 7, Keishawn Bierria.

    Second play from scrimmage, Lawyer makes a nice play for no gain, Bierria gets hurt.

    Third play from scrimmage, and for the rest of the series, Lawyer and Constantine are the linebackers.

    Second series, Bierria is back, and it's Bierria and Lawyer. BBK makes his first appearance after Lawyer runs himself out of position, about 10:00 into the game.

    Also, for what it's worth, the next game was at Stanford (Magna Carta's Opus). First series: Victor/Lawyer. Second series: Victor/Lawyer. Third series: Victor/Bierria. Fourth series: Lawyer/BBK.

    Soooo...
