Q: What is the chance of seeing linebacker Sean Lee in uniform for the Rose Bowl game? Would it affect his eligibility?

Bill Farrell, Forest Hill, Md.

MUSSELMAN: Bill, there is no chance of seeing Sean Lee at the Rose Bowl, except on the sideline working as a honorary captain and part-time coach. It is the same role he has held since tearing his ACL in the spring. Lee will not return New Year's Day and cost himself a fifth-year of eligibility. He still is on the comeback trail and plans to return to the field at full strength in 2009.
