Hey guys has anyone seen or heard the status of some of our players? Specifically Fuller after he was helped off the field, and is Facyson good? They may have not reported injuries yet, but just seeing if anyone was in the know on the injury front. Thanks. Go Hokies

That was cramps. Much more concerned with Marshall, Dadi and Brewer. I'm not sure how healthy Facyson is either.
Been wanting to ask, what's the difference in the green Gatorade jugs and the real Gatorade Kendall was drinking after being taken over to the sideline.
One is typically water.
One is filled with magical Fuller elixir, no mere mortal can drink it and survive
wish i was better at photo shop and all that id make this FULLERS secret stuff....
I was hoping someone was going to post this. Have a leg. Actually have them all.
The Gatorade jugs are for Sam Rogers. He calls them a cup.
I think Kendall was definitely trolling Lebron with "cramps".
well if anyone knows something on Marshall, Dadi, and Facyson: post them here... I think I saw where they asked brewer after the game if he was alright...and he just his whole body was sore. Def was a physical game, hopefully our guys hit the ice baths.
Unless Beamer discusses it tomorrow, don't expect to get any official news on injuries until Thursday's injury report is released.
Hopefully Sam Rogers orders them to not be injured...
I want to know more about Trey's injury status. He really had something going at the end of last year. He also had a couple of devastating blocks in the game last night. I wanna see him back in action.
Oh yeah, Trey looked like he missed not being in there and took advantage to make some monster blocks.
No joke about Trey. He was making the most of his time out there, making an impact.
Glad you mentioned that, and I hope he reads it.
In fact, it is pretty daggone difficult to pick a name of a guy that got playing time, and not find a good play he made. I keep watching the replays of the game, and there were just excellent "little things" that pop up everywhere. What an effort.
Maybe he should move to HB/FB since the RB depth is pretty good for the moment and he can block pretty well. You know, just in case Sam Rogers needs a breather.
Check that, I think breathers are more likely to need Sam Rogers
Sam Rogers internally replenishes his own oxygen and self heals, I thought this was common knowledge.
I thought it was just leg cramps, I hope that's what it is anyway!
Agree. If you walk off and they just hand you a Gatorade, seems like that's all it is.
He was grabbing his forearm though, it seemed to me.
He's still human enough to have muscles in his forearm.
Shows the trust the coaches/players had in Donovan Riley. "You got this.". Who said there was a depth problem? At one point the entire DL was subbed out, and I don't remember any drop in performance (at least on that play).
Amongst all the "fire all the coaches, we've never won a big game, those were Tressel's recruits" posts on 11w, it was said Urban and the staff had a "Next Man Up" philosophy, which they're pretty sure was a smokescreen for "we're in trouble".
In Blacksburg this year, Next Man Up appears to be a reality. No bells being rung around HokieNation on this night.
Great point re. the DL subs. Was I the only one that felt some apprehension when the announcers pointed out our D-Line was all subs at one point?
That apprehension lasted all of one play I think.
Lights Out!
Bud Foster and his staff are the best in the business.
End. Of. Discussion.
Zero let down- Period. The End!
Absolutely! This was one of the best efforts and best games EVER! The entire team played awesome. That touchdown drive to respond after the game was tied up made me giddy! Man am I proud of this team and the coaching staff!
I'll join you on that. When they said it was all subs on the line, I just remembered how poorly they seemed to perform against William & Mary. I audibly stated, "This could be bad." Lo and behold, I was proven to be worried for nothing. Lots of stepping up was done between the first week and this game. I'm proud and happy at the same time.
It actually gave insight into Bud's thought process and confidence in his guys. He substituted the entire D-line at once in a critical spot. Why? Because he knew they would go in there with their ears pinned back and step up the energy level at a crucial spot. Which is exactly what they did.
You were not alone. Also, French stated in another thread that Woody Baron was subbed in for the majority of the second half for Corey Marshall who may have been injured.
