Not too much notable from Scott White and Marques Tuiasosopo today, but White touched on the whole Mique Juarez saga:
On if there's a plan with Mique:
"There is a plan in place. He's in class and he's going to meet with coach (Jim) Mora I believe later this week and the contents of that meeting I think would be a better question for coach Mora, but definitely there is a plan in place."
On if that's an encouraging event:
"The plan hasn't changed at all. The plan was always for him to be back with us. There was never, ever a part of it where he was going to walk away or go somewhere else or do anything like that. He's always been with us. He's always been in contact with us throughout the entire process over the past seven weeks or so. At the end of the day, this thing is bigger than football. We're talking about a young man here. We want to make sure he's OK as a person first more so than Mique the football player. That was our biggest concern as a coaching staff -- it wasn't necessarily football. I told him, 'I'll take care of the football part for you. Just make sure you're OK and you're happy and your heart and your mind is in the right place.' That was our biggest concern."
