    On the first Saturday of college football games, the University of Washington football Adam Jones Jersey team turned in yet another practice, with this one highlighted by a visit from Rose Bowl MVP and Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon, as it prepares for Kent State.In Logan Utah, however, a couple of former Husky linebackers cro sed paths in real time in a game nationally televised.MJ Tafisi led the Utah State Aggies with 10 tackles in their season-opening 31-20 victory over Connecticut, a team now coached by Jim Mora that also answers to Huskies Blank Jersey .The 6-foot, 235-pound Tafisi appeared in uniform for the first time since last season’s chaotic UW-Oregon football game, which brought total upheaval to the Montlake program.Coach Jimmy Lake was suspended for shoving Tafisi’s fellow linebacker Ruperake Fuavai on the sideline that day and fired a week later.Offensive coordinator John Donovan was fired the day following the 26-16 lo s to the Ducks for poor performance.And Tafisi, without any public explanation, simply quit.He didn’t appear in the Oregon game, his first mi Caleb Joseph Jersey s of the season while younger teammate Carson Bruener drew most of the snaps, and chances are that didn’t Randy Johnson Jersey sit well with him.Scroll to ContinueEither way, Tafisi walked away with three games remaining on the schedule.Against UConn, the 6-foot, 235-pound junior from Salt Lake City wore No. 2 in an all-white uniform (he was 53 at the UW) before a crowd of 19,553 and that TV audience looking in.Tafisi helped the Aggies, coming Patrick Corbin Jersey off an 11-3 season, rally from a 14-0 deficit to defeat UConn and Mora at Merlin Olsen Field. He had 2 tackles for lo s among his double-digit tackle total.The hard-hitting linebacker spent four seasons at the UW, appearing in 22 games and finishing with 40 tackles. He never started, which no doubt was a source of frustration for him.
