So much has gone sideways I had forgotten about Darrian Brown.

There’s been 8 or 9 DBs miss time behind injury or go out. That’s crazy.

Maybe if Orlando stopped blitzing them against 300lbs they wouldn't be so banged up 

[Yesh 904]

They also spent all offseason repping McCulloch and Ossai as Mac/Rover, now McCulloch is injured and Ossai is playing Nickel.

[Tex-19 2869]

Whats the timeline on Thompson, Sterns, and Green?

Since TO has been here we seem to have wasted Spring/Summer/Fall camp. Every year they miss on evaluations and do not show signs of on field development likely to not having a base defense to master. Oh the irony of Coach reciting the definition of insanity for 3 years.

Actually, it is the open field hitting where they seem to really struggle.

I don't think the evals are the problem - we're hitting on bluechips that are the top of every program's board. It's the development (and the injuries).

I meant player evals once on campus. Starting Hughes and Hagar at LB in year 1. Starting Roach at MLB and Hagar at 4i last year are some of the examples. We are lead to play dumb fb.

I'm talking about the injuries taking a toll

Which of the DBs were injured blitzing into the oline? All of the ones I recall were injured tackling someone.

There’s no need to invent things to bitch about. It’s not like we don’t have enough already.

yes.  would love to hear an update on green and/or sterns. 

[Jkwellborn 6656]

Fixed it.

Started to put that. Didn’t have the heart to. Obviously I can start on defense.

[GTX Horn 1707]

When are we going to see Jordan Whittington back? Or at this point are we just going to redshirt him?

According to his aunt who I know, as of last Wednesday, he hoped to come back for TCU but his family thought he was rushing back from the hernia surgery. 

[JOSEYWALES66 1790]

Really excited about Jordan Whittington.  I think he is a difference maker. 

[JohnnyRage 1617]

@LTtxfan Your list is appreciated, but confusing. Needs more categories

Hell of an athlete, but unproven to this point. I don’t consider it to be his fault, obviously has been injured. His return though does provoke some thought as to where he fits. I mean, Roschon can’t just be pat on the back and shelved. At this point Whittington has to beat someone, maybe it’s Ingram, but he can’t just be given 15 carries a game.

Jordan was brought in as a receiver if I remember correctly.

He was RB2 to start the season. Entire reason for Ro ever taking a snap at RB this year.

Yeah, but @Rhinotx is right, he was recruited as a wideout. Striking out on Sanders/Cain forced the RB transition.

Got ya. I guess I just fail to see the relevancy in such, given the present. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Is the shark done/out?

Pretty sure Shark is still out....

We should move Roschon to LB

We’ve had about 75 or 80 players nicknamed “the shark” the past couple years it seems. There should be legislation banning that as a nickname option. Especially when the defense plays like minnows.

Why is Danny Young and Kirk Johnson not getting more (or atleast some) carries?

You have to put in your best players when facing a team like Kansas.

I thought Suge was in prison. 

[Viper 12033]

Did I read somewhere (IT maybe) that Green was expected back this week?

Herman said he was practicing, the initial diagnosis was a month, which was a little over a month ago. Wondering if it's confirmed he's playing tomorrow.

Edited October 25, 2019 by Viper

[Red Five 40690]

Yep Green is playing tomorrow. 

[Reynolds Woodcock 4675]

Has Herman mentioned anything about getting Chris Brown back this year? Can a DB come back from a broken arm in the same season?

It's not like our defense uses their arms for anything so sure he could come back.

I wonder if Sterns is still considering a redshirt?  It was a rumor at some point.   I hope he makes it back for the home stretch.  I believe he is the tone setter in that secondary with the way he plays in the open field.
