Taylor and Briscoe?

[OWB]

What's the status on these two guys? I know that Briscoe suffered a concussion yesterday, but what happened to Taylor?

 

[justingroves]

Taylor had a toe injury going into the game and aggravated against Bama

 

[OWB]

Think he'll be back by the South Carolina game? His absence in the second half yesterday was certainly felt.

 

[Vols4ever]

I think we will see more of G jones... he did have some good hands

 

[justingroves]

I honestly have no idea about Taylor but I will find out

Briscoe will probably be out for a week or two.


Gerald Jones did manage to burn his redshirt yesterday

 

[g8terh8ter_eric]

Briscoe should play next weekend, but Taylor has turf toe and may still be hampered by it.

That sucks about Jones.

We completely wasted that redshirt.

I'm skeptical about a guy with a concussion playing a week after getting it.

Did anyone else jump up and get excited when they realized the G Jones was in the game (making the nice 3rd down conversion grab), only to get kicked in the gut on the next play (interception)?

 

[Bassmanbruno]

You don't know if it turns out to be a waste or not - heck who knows he could break out and end up with 30 catches by the end of the season if he gets his chance.

Not necessarily. If he's getting experience that leads to him having a prominent role next year, then why not? Fulmer lied to him and said he wouldn't receive a redshirt after he hurt his hamstring.

 

[OWB]

When did Taylor actually go out? I'm watching the Phil Fulmer show right now and he was playing well into the third quarter.

I like that.... now that g jones wont redshirt mite as well have a break out remaining season...

 

[kkep48]

I think Taylor played most of the game but he was just ineffective. Fulmer said in his post-game show that he couldn't separate from guys and didn't have the speed he usually does.

 

[Cartervol]

Well if they are going to burn his redshirt at least throw it to him a bunch in our remaining games. Make him better for next year, still sucks to burn a redshirt.

 

[allvol123]

If G Jones has blown his redshirt, then he should take over for Briscoe for good.

Are you joking? Take Rogers out before you take Briscoe out...

 

[allvol123]

No I am not joking. Neither are that great. Just get Jones on the field.

 

[smokeyman15]

No I am not joking. Neither are that great. Just get Jones on the field.

I agree with both of those..just dont leave Rogers on the field
