Peeples, a Las Vegas native, died at Mountain View Hospital with the cause of death “yet to be determined.”

The Dos and Don’ts Of Spring Break
Michigan DBs Jabrill Peppers and Blake Countess show off gymnastics skills (Videos)
The folks in Ann Arbor seem to be really jacked up about the beginning of spring practice.
First, new Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh said the first day of spring drills is “like coming out of the mother’s womb” and that he would attack it “with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.”
Practice began on Tuesday and Wolverines defensive backs Jabrill Peppers and Blake Countess showed that they head-over-heels excited to be back on the field.
TURNT‼️💯 http://ift.tt/1MYTEcP
— Breez (@JabrillPeppers) February 25, 2015 That’s Peppers, a redshirt freshman, showing off his gymnastics skills during what looks to be a special teams drill. Peppers, who recently moved from cornerback to safety, missed the majority of the 2014 season with various injuries. The former five-star recruit is expected to make an impact for the Wolverines in the fall.
Two days after Peppers’ impressive backflip, fifth-year senior Blake Countess took the gymnast skills to another level.
Yall decide! 😈😂 its all fun tho! @JabrillPeppers http://ift.tt/1FFfGeT
— Blake Countess (@TheeCount2) February 27, 2015 Unlike Peppers, Countess, an All-Big Ten honorable mention selection in 2014, actually has a gymnastics background from his youth, so that seems like a bit of an unfair comparison. Still, it shows off the kind of athletic ability the Wolverines will have on display in their secondary in 2015.
Following the conclusion of Friday’s practice, the Wolverines have a week off before picking things up again on March 10. From then on out it’s three practices per week until the team’s spring game on Saturday, April 4.

Two starting Oregon State linemen, two others medically retire
The program announced Friday that the retirement of offensive linemen Garrett Weinreich and Grant Bays, defensive end Glyeb Ewing and safety Zack Robinson are all related to medical issues.
The 6-foot-6, 312-pound Weinreich earned the starting role for the Beavers at left guard entering the 2014 season. He started the opener against Portland State but re-aggravated a knee injury he originally suffered in his true freshman season in 2012. From that point on he struggled to return to the field and saw action in only two games for the season. That same injury caused him to miss the entire 2012 season and limited him to just four games on special teams as a redshirt freshman in 2013.
Like Weinreich, the 6-foot-3, 288-pound Bays was entering his redshirt junior season for the Beavers. He started a combined 10 games over the past two seasons at right guard, but according to The Oregonian, Bays dealt with a “nagging back issue” for much of his career.
After redshirting as a true freshman in 2012, the 6-foot-2, 205-pound Robinson appeared in 19 games over the past two seasons for the Beavers, mainly on special teams. However, both seasons were cut short due to injury. In 2013, it was a knee injury that kept Robinson out of two games. In 2014, Robinson missed the team’s final three games with an unspecified injury. Overall, Robinson registered eight tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in his career.
Ewing, a three-star recruit from Waukon, Iowa, took a redshirt in 2014.
The Beavers start their first spring practice under new coach Gary Andersen on Tuesday, March 3.

Oregon OL Andre Yruretagoyena decides to retire
A month after defensive tackle Sam Kamp made the decision due to health concerns, Oregon announced Thursday that offensive lineman Andre Yruretagoyena, a potential starter in 2015, will retire from football for personal reasons.
“We wish him all the best,” said Oregon head coach Mark Helfrich.
Yruretagoyena was a redshirt junior in 2014 and started the first two games of the season for the Ducks before going down with a leg injury. That injury kept him sidelined for much of the season, but he was able to play but not start in the team’s final four games, including the Pac-12 title game, the Rose Bowl, and the College Football Playoff title game.
Overall in his Oregon career, Yruretagoyena played in 17 games. According to a release from Oregon, Yruretagoyena said he now plans to “focus on getting my body healthy and graduating.”
“I have the utmost respect for all my coaches and teammates, and can’t thank them enough for the support and opportunity to represent the University of Oregon,” Yruretagoyena said.
“I’d also like to thank the fans of the team for their support and taking their time to come to games; they’re a very big part of this program and their support will always be a huge motivator for the team. I wish the team nothing but a successful year and can’t wait to watch.”
In addition to Yruretagoyena, Oregon also needs to replace departed seniors Hroniss Grasu, Jake Fisher and Hamani Stevens along the offensive line. Fortunately for the Ducks, senior left tackle Tyler Johnstone is set to return after missing all of last year with an injury.
Additionally, Cameron Hunt, Tyrell Crosby, Matt Pierson, Jake Pisarcik and Doug Brenner – all of whom started at least one game last season – are set to return.
Oregon starts spring practice on March 31.

Surveillance images from Howard's Rock vandalism released (Photo)
The man who vandalized Howard's Rock at Clemson's Memorial Stadium may not have realized he'd be caught on camera. Or if he did, he was pretty brazen.
The school released surveillance images from the vandalism, which show a man hitting the glass case surrounding the rock with what appears to be a rod. The incident shattered the glass around the case, though Clemson said the rock itself appeared to be unharmed. Construction crews working on the stadium found the rock's case vandalized on Wednesday morning.

— Orange and White (@orangeandwhite) February 26, 2015 The suspect has not been found yet. From WLTX:
The suspect was wearing a navy blue jacket, blue jeans, work boots, and gloves with reflective material on the knuckles and back of the hand. The pickup he was in is similar to a Ford Ranger. Anyone with information should call Clemson police at 864-656-2222 or Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
The rock has been removed from Memorial Stadium until a new case is found.
