Hit by Upshaw left Huber dazed
August 11, 2008
Junior fullback Baron Huber didn’t play at all in Saturday’s first scrimmage of fall camp.
He was held out with a slight concussion after a big practice collision late last week with Eufaula freshman linebacker Courtney Upshaw.
“I don’t know if y’all have seen the size of his head, but you probably understand why I took the bad end of that hit,” Huber joked on Monday. “He did a really good job. He’s a really physical kid and he hit me right in the right spot.”
Huber, the fullback from Knoxville, Tenn., said the cobwebs have cleared.
“I just got a slight concussion,” he said. “We were just running a weakside power play. I tried to run up there and seal the end and he kind of hit me in the sweet spot in the side of my head. Sometimes it happens. You play hard enough, you’ll get those.”
After sitting out the weekend, Huber was back on the field for Monday’s practices.
“Felt great, felt like I did before I left. No problems really,” he said.
