Lucas Injury?

Pete has been grasping for straws recently. Said OJ was out a significant amount of time yesterday, but David Lake then refuted that by saying it wasn’t serious.

I’m not saying either is right or wrong, just don’t go blindly believing Pete.

If it is true, however, our corner situation went from top tier strength, to a massive problem. O’Connor didn’t play 1H because he was battling injuries, and only came in 2H cause of depth concerns. Portis had to play boundary late instead of nickel where he’s been practicing. And unfortunately, CIS isn’t as trustworthy when it comes to injuries anymore because of politics and state media concerns. That’s not a jab - D$ has a job to do in order to gain close access to the program and grow his brand - and this is one of the mandatory guidelines he has to follow (although I still highly disagree with nuking threads related to injuries or suspensions, as this is supposed to be a safe space for fans to talk about the program and by doing so, he makes the user experience Gestapo-esque; but I digress, it’s his site and he can do as he pleases).

So really, what this all means is we won’t know Jack until mandatory injury reports come out/the games are played…although clearly Mario is defying those as well since he didn’t list O’Connor on there at all…

It wasn’t Pete that was divulging the information. Some random guy. I guess it’s worth monitoring

Oj has a simple separation. He's fine. Worst case we save him two weeks

Good to hear it’s not long term, and I’m no doctor…but isn’t separation worse than dislocation?

would like to have him back before Clemson, even if Dabo is on the fast-track to unemployment. He deserves a beat down after what he did to us in the ACCCG, and it would be pure gold to replicate the pic of him and Al Golden, but in reverse.

Depends on circumstances. Here not much concern.

I’ve suffered both separation and dislocation, separation is definitely worse, but even then it’s still playable after a few days rest. My speculation is they’ll sit him against FAMU just to give more rest time

If it’s a first or second degree separation, it’s not that serious. No surgery, PT, a few weeks. I had a third degree shoulder separation back in my 20s and that one is more severe, may require surgery (I never got surgery) and longer rehab (probably 6-8 weeks?).
