Can’t catch a single break.

 

[UConnDan97]

Wow. We're now down our top 3 receivers. Ugh...

How is Marion's injury a season-ending one?

How is Marion's injury a season-ending one?

Shoulders are weird. If he tore a labrum when it popped he's probably done. Weird shoulder injury in high school disrailed Kris Dunn's basketball career for damn near 3 years

 

[Wildgopher]

That really stinks. Man o man, the amount of season ending injuries at this University lately to big time players has been really hard to digest.

 

[WestCoastHusky]

Feel horrible for both. This is why we always need depth.

 

[LoyalFanCT]

that is just awful

Marion, healthy, would likely play on Sundays. He is a massive loss. Roberson is a loss but Turner will improve. He is a true freshman in a hostile environment playing against a top 30 team ... and o yea on a team coming off a 1-11 record with all new staff.

Injuries happen and it's always a real heartbreaker
But, next man up
Good things can happen

 

[The Viking]

With knees you alway assume season ender. Shoulder though? On the disputed TD he raised both arms to signal TD to the ref.
Unreal.

Not as often as they do with this team.

Need Tyler Phommachanh back soon

Good thing they brought in 800 WRs. Ross and Marion really good players.

As far as QB, I don’t have an appetite for true frosh growing pains, but what you gonna do? Would like to see them work Millen in a bit.

 

[Tdaley]

Terrible news

Shoulder injuries can be awful in that they take forever to heal. I have a torn rotator cuff and while it's so much better than it was it's 9 months later and I still can't bench press.

I agree. Turner is promising but from what I saw today he's Tyler Phommachanh without the dynamic running ability. With so many injuries to our wideout's we're going to need a QB who can run.

Zion can run, but today he played like a freshmen who hasn’t been acclimated to the speed of the game yet.

He doesn't have the extra gear Tyler Phommachanh has. Of course it is fair to wonder if Tyler Phommachanh still has the extra gear coming off the ACL.

 

[Guru13]

He doesn't have the extra gear Tyler Phommachanh has.

That is true, but have we seen him fully run yet?

 

[Stinger92860]

A healthy Tyler Phommachanh needs to be given a chance

 

[Palatine]

Zion was falling all over the place every time he ran. He is not in Puma's league as a runner.

ZT was 12-31 passing today with a TD and two INTs. He might get better. But will he actually get good? At this point Puma has shown more.
