Gopher update

I thought I'd give you all an update on WR Aaron Hosack and LB Kyle McKenzie.

I really thought coming into training camp that Hosack would be a consistent playmaker, especially after his successful stint in NFL Europe. But Hosack has been relatively quiet.

Meanwhile, I thought Kyle McKenzie has struggled. He made a nice play today, picking off a pass from QB Tarvaris Jackson. But McKenzie has not stood out in most practices.
This is what defensive coordinator Mike Tomlin had to say about him: "It was kind of a rebound morning for him.
"We've been giving Kyle a hard time. It was a dog day for him yesterday. It was good to see him make that play. There will be those kinds of days for a young guy, particularly in his position, with some guys battling and things in front of him. He's game every day he comes out there, and he made a nice play today."

So far, based on what I've seen, I don't see any Gophers making this year's Vikings' roster.
