Dana Holgorsen had a real news conference today, and the highlight is the news that starting left guard Adam Pankey is suspended and will miss at least the opener against Missouri. Tony Matteo will take his place.

I didn’t follow up on this with anyone, but I would presume Pankey isn’t practicing. I will also presume that started last week. There are two weeks before Sept. 3. That’s three weeks of inactivity. He’s a veteran, I know, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Pankey, provided he’s reinstated, doesn’t start or doesn’t play much against Youngstown State. There’s an open week between the game against the Penguins and the subsequent one against BYU.

Also, we’re getting a revised depth chart later that reflects where things stood after Saturday’s closed scrimmage. I don’t want to ruin the surprises, but from what I understand there will be some noticeable changes, including a new role for the indispensable Khairi Sharif.
