"But now, Foster has decided to move sophomore Bruce Taylor from mike to backer and play Taylor’s backup, redshirt freshman Jack Tyler, at mike. This doesn’t mean that Edwards definitely won’t play in the Orange Bowl. Foster could still play Taylor at his regular mike spot at points during the game, in which case Edwards would be the backer. As of this moment, though, Foster is practicing Taylor only at backer, and giving him all the first-team snaps."
— An update to our earlier linebacker update. According to Darryl Slater of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, the plan is now for Jack Tyler to start in the Orange Bowl and for Bruce Taylor to start at backer. I think this is the first move toward having Taylor at backer and Barquell Rivers at mike next season.
