That sucks....wonder if Exum will be ready otherwise. Otherwise, Next Man Up...Bourbon and Sam Rogers will save us.
Oh no. At least it's nothing too too serious.
And Exum daycare opens it's doors...
Beat me to it.
Oh no. Wonder if Exum is feeling like he's ready?
Based on his past tweets and rehab updates, I think he's been chomping at the bit (do centaurs have bits?) since he was in the recooperation room for his surgery.
If Brandon can't play, Kendall will play one corner and Kyle the other. Or, Kyle will play Whip/Nickel, with Riley taking his corner. Dadi might also get the chance to play Whip again this week.
Lots of options - all of them good.
Dadi plays every position at the same time.
Queue the Dadi Rogers show...
Rogers on O and Dadi on D, and we're good.
Sometimes they switch positions to make it interesting.
If the concussion had been that bad he would not have even dressed for practice in green. He'll play!
Next man up, ...luckily we can afford that. It saddens me to see him injured (glad its not serious)...but I'm elated that we've got the depth to cover our asses.
Most of the team is now in mid-season form. If Exum doesn't play now, then when?
Mike Barber on the radio says Exum looks up to full-speed on the field, and most other reports corroborate this.
coach says its alright to bleed out the ears a bit.
If he can't go and Exum isn't 100%, the Fullers will play corner, with Kendall sliding down to nickel with Riley coming on in passing situations (which seem like they'll happen a lot on Saturday). And the machine hums along...
Well that sucks for Facyson. Hope they don't rush him back at all. Seems like Exum is going to make his debut.
I can't wait to see him give us seven great final games.
And hope Facyson finds his way back to the field this season, as a receiving threat.
Doesn't seem like there's any reason to think he won't play again this season. Personally I hope he continues to be a receiving threat from his cb spot regardless.
well, duke will test him early and often. the daycare is open.
Goodnews and badnews? I don't think we can read to much into Exum starting and Facyson's injury b/c the coaches said Exum would start once he returned.
Duke is gonna come out firing at Exum on that first drive. Hope he's ready.
That figures. Facyson is the only person who can stop Facyson.
Offense and defense at the same time? This is what happens when a poorly thrown ball causes a receiver to turn defensive back...or was it the other way around...
How high did he jump? Jeez.
They tried to scan his CAT, but he picked it off. Poor thing.
This is how you lose vs Bye?
Damn! Dammit!
