Relax. Maurer may not be hurt at all.

[1vol8]

If I had to guess the reason he was held out was precautionary. If he indeed was concussed last week (even if minor) a shot to the head could make it worse. I personally would rather have him as healthy as possible going into next week and beyond and a (hypothetical) win at Alabama wouldn’t change that.

 

[allvol123]

Be shocked if he plays next week.

I think there's a possibility that you're right. Plus, There's no way Pruitt was going to take any chances after the confusion last week.

Right, and and blow your chance of upsetting #1 Bama with Tua out.

Right. Until it’s confirmed I’m not jumping to conclusions. It was clear Alabama’s game plan was to come after Maurer. A win there wasn’t worth his health nor the rest of our season.

I hope you’re right. Otherwise, we seriously need to install the triple option with JJ, Grey and chandler.
Throw 12-15 passes a game and hope u can ring up 250 rushing yards. If Shrout is our only hope, we are in trouble. He’s just not ready to play at this level.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Eh....I think he was legit hurt. I doubt Pruitt wanted to put JG back out there unless he absolutely had to.

Should've brought him back as soon as Tua went out lol.

 

[Dougie_D]

I didn’t see Maurer on the sidelines at all. To me, that’s not good? Maybe I missed something

 

[Fayettvol]

yeah about that...............

I think he was trying to draw a flag. Which he should have gotten because it was warranted. But due to his protocol last week it wasn’t worth the risk.

 

[1vol8]

yeah about that...............

Lol. You’re sadly mistaken if you think that look in his face while talking to Pruitt was relief. He was pissed

 

[jp1]

Looked like they took his helmet. That was the sign to me he was hurt, however he acted like he was arguing to go back in.

 

[fossilfiction]

If Shrout is our only hope, we are in trouble. He’s just not ready to play at this level. Dude really needed a red shirt.

He still can redshirt. He can play in three more games.

He already used his redshirt, last year. Too bad we don’t have a bye week because he needs ALOT more work with the 1s before he’s out back out there.

I think he was still hurt from the last week, but, I’m not a doctor and don’t play one on TV.

I don't question Maurer's toughness at all, but how much has he ever been hit really? There's an art to getting hit without taking a hard shot that has to be learned and that's even moreso for a true freshman

 

[jpope9]

yeah about that...............

And your point is?

Sorry your boy JG is done as a vol, but hey keep posting more ******** videos from gump Twitter accounts

 

[vols40]

I guess I see this but I'm more concerned that if he plays next week does she finish the game? He's 0-3

What difference does it make. If he starts next week, he won’t play more than a quarter or 2 before getting knocked out of that one too. It’s 3 games now. He’s not the answer if he can’t be available to play.

My boy? IS the video fake news because i found it on a bama twitter? You cant be this dumb.

 

[KBVol]

yeah about that...............

Hey dumb arse, that’s from the Georgia game when he got blind sided on the blitz.

 

[37620VOL]

On the dark side, if he's had 2 concussions in two weeks it could be season ending.

 

[Fayettvol]

He dumb arse, that’s from the Georgia game.

When you call someone a dumbass make sure you spell all the words right

 

[white65]

Maurer took his helmet off right away. He was hurting bad.
