Re: Blair Tashaus transferring?
Judging by his tweets, this may be the case. He seemed very depressed. I am not sure if that is because of BYU environment or personal issues.hawkwing wrote:Gushy is definitely transferring. He always struggled fitting in at BYU as a catholic. I don't think he ever found a way to feel comfortable here.

Yea... Blair was actually fitting the BYU environment very well. He lost quite bit of weight and that put him away from his position. The precious coaches were not caring him much either...

Former BYU center moving to tight end
Rodriguez and the Wildcats have gotten creative with their newest tight end.
Former BYU center Blair Tushaus is on Arizona’s roster as a tight end, and will help provide some depth at a thin position.
Tushaus, an invited walk-on, spent four seasons at BYU and received his degree. As a result, he can play this season for Arizona and doesn’t have to sit out.
Tushaus played 15 games over the 2011 and 2012 seasons at center for the Cougars. He was listed on BYU’s roster at 6-2, 270, but has trimmed down to 239 pounds.
“He’s a pretty good football player,” Rodriguez said. “He’s a tough guy. He can probably help us at least on special teams.”
Tushaus is originally from Scottsdale and played at Notre Dame Prep.
Arizona now has five tight ends on their roster in Tushaus, Josh Kern, Aaron Lacombe, Hunter Layton and Trevor Wood. Only Kern — a converted quarterback — and Wood are on scholarship.

Re: Blair Tashaus transferring?
Maybe Anae helped him find the spot. A one year TE is surprising. Also sounds underweight. Not sure I get it.

I hope he does well. Too bad he couldn't keep the weight on.
If ye love the tranquility of servitude better than the contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
