Didn’t look ready vs UTC either.

Don’t get me wrong, I prefer him to JG. But he doesn’t give me much hope.

Maurer didn’t look ready against UTC.
Without practice reps and on field game snaps? They AIN’T!
Hope is a see it to believe it proposition...so I smell ya.

Hey y'all. No idea why that tweet has people so mad or feeling like I'm "trolling" fans. There were about a million things that didn't go Tennessee's way. It's what I thought a very clear reference on the game. It's not a comment on any fans in any way and I'm legitimately floored anyone took it that way. I wrote about a handful of the most impactful missed calls after the game.

Anyway, hope y'all are well. Enjoy the rest of the season and thanks for reading and subscribing.

It's because when you say ifs and buts , people think you're making fun of them and that their complaints are without substance. You combine that with your recent tweeting and posting history and it should be easy for you to see why people think you're a troll. @David Ubben

Ok.

He’s a leach now by the way. Not a good look for him as I’ve seen him around a number of functions lately. Always tags along uninvited

If Swain’s invited...so is Jabari. Speaking of LEACH, did Washington State play yesterday?

Props to CP for taking the heat on that, but seeing this over and over nauseates me! Can’t imagine how disgusted CP and the team is with JG right now?![/QUOTE.

Major props. CJP didn’t throw anybody under the bus and he didn’t let his emotions get the best of him during his presser. He took all the blame and I’m sure his players appreciate him having their back 100%

I think people missed this, and it makes sense (this guy has to be a doctor)

Thanks for this, as I assume you had inside info, and this explanation makes way more sense. Watching the MS game, concussion just didn't make sense, as there was relatively gentle head impact, but then he hyperextended his neck with all his weight adding to the force of the fall going straight down the axis of the spinal cord with his cervical spine in a position where it couldn't carry a load. He then grabbed his upper neck. That's a good mechanism for either a teardrop or C1 burst fracture. I was initially quite relieved to see him moving all 4 limbs. After he was taken out but kept nonchalantly on the sideline, neck sprain, disc herniation or pinched nerve seemed most likely given the mechanics and overall lack of concern for more serious injury by medical staff. Then tonight, he falls backwards into the back of the OL thigh/knee. Again, soft head impact into a pretty soft area of the OLs body, but got hyperflexed. Hopefully just exacerbated a sprain and was held out as a precaution, and will need an MRI to confirm no ligamentous damage, worsened disc herniation or instability before being cleared.

Thanks for posting... exactly what I and @BruinVol we're discussing in dumbed down terms. This is great news if the case and I'm pretty sure it is. Off season plan for BM needs to be lots of calories/protein and neck exercises.

Never say never, but given the severity with which JG violated team trust, it's hard for me to imagine him playing at UT again. When former Vols are calling you out on social media, that says something. But who knows? If Maurer is seriously hurt, Pruitt may feel like he has no choice. We all say we'd rather see Shrout, but Pruitt's job is to win games, so he'll have to make a decision on how best to do that.

Never seen anybody get concussed by the back of a fat guys knee while wearing a helmet.... unless you count this one time that @Special Ed fell in the lunch line at fat camp.

Troy Aikman got a concussion from a Lavar Arrington leg tackle. Solid up against the back of your head falling at an angle isn’t a tap. Hope it isn’t ...good chance you’re right. Just commenting on the possibility.

Jimmy Hyams saying that after the second down run by Tim Jordan that made it to the 2 yard line, but the officials put the ball back on the 3 yard line. Crouch runs to the half yard line on 3rd down, which would have been a TD if the ball had been spotted correctly after 2nd down.

On the run prior to that, they spotted it a full yard and a half short of where Tim was down. Was so bizarre.
