per Joe:
* Gophers wide receiver Jeff Borchardt continues to make good progress after having surgery June 2 to remove a brain tumor. His father texted me this morning: "The 6 week mri looked really good. Lots of healing has taken place. No real visual signs of any tumor left. So future mri's every 3 months to monitor. If any sign of the tumor returns then radiation. Light to med weight lifting for next 3 months and back to more normal life of a 20 yr old. But very smart. Worse thing poss right now would be another concussion while brain heals. Jeffrey smiled yesterday realizing a new chapter started."
* I interviewed offensive coordinator Matt Limegrover yesterday for a few stories I'm working on for training camp. During one answer, he offered thoughts on the running backs, as the team needs to replace workhorse David Cobb:
"Rodrick Williams will be a guy that you want to turn around and hand it to him," Limegrover said. "He’s going to get you yards. And hopefully the combination of him and having a veteran offensive line who’ve been through that is kind of like ground zero. If all else fails, we’re going to pound you, and we’re going to bring 35 [Williams] 20 times.
