I think it is the DJK dog house effect.

This better not be another Tom Donatell situation. The safties last year sucked and while Miller was a culprit, the SS spot needs a big upgrade.
A dog house effect in spring ball????, gawd I hope that KF isnt tightening the reins that tight.
Is there actual news there that Law did something wrong?

Well he didn't play at all in Des Moines which is why I thought he might be dinged up.

Law has been injured this Spring and slowed down according to several interviews (if you read them).
Now, tell me just what have you seen on the field to show that Law should be first team SS?? Lowdermilk seems to be takin advantage of the practice time and knows what his assignments are and does them, for most part.

Agreed. I believe Kirk or Phil acknowledged he's been dinged up and missed some of the spring practices during one of their press conferences.
People are naturally intrigued by the athleticism/physicality that Nico brings to the table. It's always nice to have a big hitter on the field, and it seems he has a knack for coming up and supporting the run. Maybe his "cool name" has something to do with it as well. However, those things don't mean a damn thing if he can't perform equally as well against the passing attack. I'm already starting to hear whispers that Kirk might not be playing the most talented guy... I don't get it. Who's to say Lowdermilk hasn't earned the starting spot? How many of you naysayers have actually watched all 15 practices? I certainly havent, but I'm not going to question whether or not Lowdermilk deserves to be the starter when we haven't really seen much out of Nico either. At the end of the day, a nice clean form tackle is the same thing as a big hit is it not? If Lowdermilk is taking care of business then so be it.
