Heck it sounds like he may only miss the Tenn game or just 2 weeks.

I'm guessing he's not even ruled out totally this week. A lot of it has to do with the inflammation and how long before it sibsides. He could wear a brace. Stranger things have happened.

Given Zach's track record predicting recruits and laying down less than sick rhymes about polo shirts, I'll wait for official confirmation.

I thought he would have torn ligaments left and right. Depending on how bad the sprain he could still be out 4 to 6 weeks.

So back either against Mizzou, UGA, or Arkansas, if that is indeed the injury.
We'll see I guess

Danny W wore those leg braces A LOT. He never got recognition for how many his he took or how tough he was.

It is still possible that LDR could ice the hell out of the knee and be back on Sat wearing a brace if necessary.

2 weeks and one of those is Vandy. So basically he will miss Tennessee because we could beat vandy without throwing a single pass.

Let's hope he recovers quickly. AA should be able to hold the fort through UT and Vandy.

Not ready to dump on Appleby, even after yesterday's game. First game, no practice with first team, etc. And Del Rio wasn't exactly brilliant. He has an ugly tendency to throw into double coverage, but didn't pay the price. Appleby doesn't know the plan as well, doesn't have the same touch, but has a much stronger arm. Let Mac coach through the difference and see if he can take advantage of the strength and cover the weakness.

Give us our best receiver back and air it out long on the stronger arm, then run run run.

It could work.
