Coach Rick Neuheisel reinstated backup guard Sonny Tevaga Tuesday after leaving him off the travel roster for Saturday’s game at Washington. Neuheisel wanted Tevaga to re-dedicate himself to football.
Neuheisel met with Tevaga Tuesday. After practice, Neuheisel said the issue was behind them, but that he hadn’t decided whether Tevaga will join the team on the Nov. 28 game at Arizona State.
Tevaga, who watched the 27-7 victory at Washington in his hotel room, didn’t question Neuheisel’s judgment.
“I was just walking around slumped, just having a bad attitude,” Tevaga said. “I needed to be more positive for the team.”
Tevaga, a sophomore, is one of three linemen who missed time this year due to off-field issues. Seniors Micah Reed and Scott Glicksberg were suspended for one game each due to a violation of athletic department rules.
“Everyone makes mistakes. We’ve had a couple instances this season of little policy stuff,” Glicksberg said. “Everyone still has his back. He’s a teammate.”
