Morning update

Couple things:
* It's much more pleasant watching practice in the relatively cool climate of a 7:15 a.m. practice. It's the 7:15 part that kind of sucks. For those of you who are up every day at that hour, my sympathies. I'm operating on two hours of sleep and a ton of caffeine.
* Lee Ziemba came back and practiced a little today. He shut out Cameron Henderson twice in pass rush drill, but went back to the trainers' tent afterwards and iced his right knee.
* Jason Bosley did not attend practice.
* Mike Blanc probably had the best rep in the drill, beating Ryan Pugh with the trusty old bull rush.
* Hugh Nall had good things to say to Jared Cooper about the strides he's making with his technique after he went against Antonio Coleman in the drill. Coleman pushed him backwards, but Cooper found ways to stay in front of him.
* Ben Tate was in and out during practice. He said his groin has bothered him, but he expects to practice this afternoon.
* Jerraud Powers made a nice pick on a Kodi Burns pass to Quindarius Carr during 11-on-11.
* Tony Franklin said about the quarterback battle something like, "This is the best problem I've ever had, and I've had a lot of problems." That's paraphrasing, as I haven't transcribed that tape yet. Just thought it was funny.

That's all for now. Got a buncha stuff to do before the afternoon practice.
