Chalk all that up as it pertains to Bruss and what you have is a situation where he will either show year two and win that job or he's probably a bust. It's start or bust for Bruss. Because guards don't need multiple years to translate in this league. Taking a rookie redshirt, ok fine. Not ideal but it happens. But by year two he's either gonna be good enough or he isn't.
So my expectation is Bruss wins that job. There won't be some titanic camp battle and if there is it's gonna be bad news.
I dunno, Merlin. I have a suspicion Bruss will still not be ready to go. Instead of spending his first/second season bulking up, refining his technique, and really pushing himself, he's spent most of his tenure rehabbing a very serious knee injury. I wouldn't be surprised to see him still behind the curve and not really hitting his stride until next year.
