… in that this Manassas Journal Messenger story, known around the world as a journalist factory, reports no new news on Brandon Hogan.

Hogan, who made the trip to Charlotte, would not elaborate on the unspecified illness that kept him out of practice all week as well as the bowl game. He would only say he was sick.
But as he watched the game on TV from his hospital room with Osbourn head football coach Steve Schultze by his side, Hogan said he was touched by the way his teammates remembered him, in particular senior quarterback Pat White, who in the post-game celebration, held up Hogan’s jersey number (22) in front of the television cameras.
“That made me feel better,” Hogan said.

As I read between the lines — and piece together various bits I’ve heard and trust since the bowl — I’d say we see Hogan at spring practice.
