SAN ANTONIO — UTSA announced Tuesday that sophomore quarterback Blake Bogenschutz has been advised by team doctors to give up football due to lingering concussion-like symptoms.
Bogenschutz missed the final seven games of the 2015 season after sustaining a concussion in the second half of the Conference USA opener at UTEP (Oct. 3).
The 6-foot, 195-pounder from Carthage completed 81-of-137 passes (59.1 percent) for 897 yards and four touchdowns in the opening five contests of his redshirt freshman campaign. Making his second career start in last fall's season opener at then-No. 22 Arizona, Bogenschutz broke the Roadrunners' single-game program record with 332 passing yards while connecting on 25-of-43 throws for two scores.
