Provo • Nobody on the current BYU football roster can adequately replace outside linebacker Fred Warner, one of the best defensive players in program history.
Yes,we’re talking about that Zayne Anderson, the 6-foot-2, 205-pound senior who played safety last season and was the fifth-leading tackler on the team with 61 takedowns.
In one of the surprise moves of spring camp, which began Monday, Anderson has been taking reps at the “flash” linebacker spot that Warner played so well the past few years. Warner recently participated in the NFL Combine in Indianapolis and is expected to be selected in April’s NFL Draft.
