Blake back with team

All is well on the defensive line for now. Tommy Blake has returned. He'll be needed even more now that defensive tackle James Vess will not play this season. According to the Star-Telegram, he's still on the team, but a violation of university rules has sidelined him for the season. In unrelated news, Andy Dalton has beaten out Marcus Jackson for the starting quarterback position. Both have reportedly practiced well during the off season, but a decision had to be made in time to give the winner a chance to prepare for Baylor. Dalton was named the starter after Saturday's scrimmage. Many people are surprised, but the fact that Jackson, a sophomore who led the Frogs to a win over the Bears last year, was not given the job earlier was an indication coaches were learning toward Dalton.
