Hasn't played since sophomore year of high school??? Thank goodness for this coaching staff. I'm sure they will have him ready for whatever Southern Miss throws at him
Unacceptable there is no quality depth in Year 5.
Meanwhile Bama has 5 stars across their OL with 3 on the Outland watch list.
Forget Bama... UK, MU, USCe, VU... are in better shape right now than UT.
The causes for Jones' out of line injury rates are beyond our ability to know since we don't have the information. But it is a persistent problem for 4 years now. Football is a rough game so there will always be injuries. But I've never seen a program lose players to injury as frequently as Jones' team does. And it isn't just depth. Dooley's teams didn't have this level of injuries and they had no depth.
Guys, this is going to be a tough game. So Miss is absolutely loaded, and I just can't see a way for us to win this one easily. We're all going to have to pull together, and the whole stadium is going to have to support the team and CBJ to pull this one out. Could be a great win for us if we can do it, though. A real season changer.
