Willie Mobley Out For Year

August 19, 2008

We learned this week that incoming freshman Willie Mobley will be out for the year due to a pre-existing shoulder injury that occured while he was in high school. The 6′3″ 265 lb frosh defensive end from Eden Prairie, Minnesota will be out all year and will look to redshirt while rehabbing his shoulder according to defensive coordinator Jim Heacock.

Mobley’s injury will not affect the team greatly because he didn’t look to garner much playing time as a true freshman. Looking to fill the void of Vernon Gholston, defensive ends Lawrence Wilson and Cameron Heyward will start, and during passing situations look for Thaddeus Gibson to come in and Heyward to slide down to defensive tackle.
