Oregon quarterback Nate Costa, out since suffering the third major knee injury of his career against Washington on Nov. 6, suited up for Monday's first practice at Pinnacle High School in Phoenix. Because the practice was closed to the media, it isn't known exactly how much Costa participated, but he was in pads, with his red no-contact jersey and the new yellow "blur'' shoes - although he still walks with a pronounced limp. http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindducksbeat/2011/01/bcs_national_championship_nate.html
Good for Nate and the team. Recently read an article about the teams arrival and how Nate "hobbled" off the plane.
