Anybody heard anything definite about who we get back/who's still out for GT?


I assume Harris, Moten, Owens are good to go.

Colbert and Jenkins back I think?

Bruce still out for the foreseeable future...

Patchan, Cager, Gordinier out for the year.

Am I missing anyone?

I think I read if there was a game this Saturday, Colbert would play. So I'd say he'll be good to go for GT.
 
With how much atrophy Owens had in his Right leg, I think it would be best if he sat out the season, give him a redshirt it's not worth risking his career further! A difference like that will do nothing to help his stride and will cause more imbalances in the future.

That's the update that I have been waiting for as well. It didn't look good when he left the field on Saturday and I haven't heard a peep about his since then. I'm hoping that means that there is nothing to report and that he is good to go for the foreseeable future.

I keep hearing about DJ's injury. What happened? I only recall him getting injured

Three problems with this. First, Owens already is a Redshirt Sophomore as he took a medical redshirt when he was originally hurt last year. Second, even if he wasn't he just played in a game! How many times does this need to be said? A player cannot take a redshirt if he plays a single down unless its for a medical reason. Third, unless you want a walk-on playing sitting him would be idiotic as he is one of the top linebackers left in a already beyond thin unit.

honestly I would keep Colbert out we don't need him to get hurt for the fsu game . We don't need him so much vs GT they run the ball 95% of the time

Ok, I didn't realize he had played. I just hope he doesn't play a ton. I know we are thin but he shouldn't see too many snaps. That could be an issue for him. All I recall is seeing a picture with intense atrophy and that can spell issues long term if he tries to go out and play right away.

Have a class with DJack on Monday nights, he had his left knee wrapped up in a soft brace when I saw him and he was nursing it a bit.
