EJ can't work out with the team for now, so he went to Arizona to work out with a great personal trainer that is a family friend. He is taking classes down there at a CC plus a class online, so he should be academically eligible come fall barring any big changes.
EJ and Brandon were both invited to the Deion Sanders' CB camp in this upcoming summer. EJ is much better at man to man, and needs work on his zone coverage.
Brandon and EJ should make it back for the Aug 9th practice. Brandon separated his shoulder in the Big 33 game in 2004, and he has not been 100% until very recently.
According to dad, Brandon is up to 6-3, 190 (listed 6-2, 170) and EJ is 6-1, 190 (listed 175).

If we get these two back, we are once again stacked at corner.

According to nevada on BN $ board, Lane/Welch have taken great strides, the coaches are high on Everett, and eager to see O'Neal in the fall. He suggests that the cupboard is full regardless of whether they come back.
But I agree, it would be extremely full if they made it back. We could lose a couple of corners to injury and still have a very good lineup.

I agree with you Taosman!! I thought EJ just hit a slump at the end of the year, because I thought he played pretty damn good in the beginning. Infact I thought he was better than Yobouty in the beginning. However now Yobouty is clearly better and has so much confidence! I hope both Underwoods can get back and make a run for a starting position.

One thing I forgot to include in my summary was that there were a lot of things gonig on in the underwood boys' lives, including their father being diagnosed with cancer (since then he has been re-diagnosed to be cancer free).
