Huskies Lose a Linebacker

Off-season attrition continues for Washington as they are down a linebacker heading into fall camp.

Attrition is a fact of life for every football program. Injuries can end a career. Coaching changes often bring about an exodus of players as a new culture and new style takes hold. Grades can be an issue for some kids. Sometimes a player simply realizes he's lost his passion for the game. And sometimes kids - and let's remember, we're talking about 18-22 years olds here, an age range rife with youthful transgressions - screw up enough to warrant a dismissal from the team.
