Points about timing and "doom" are best left to nefarious individuals not substantive people like yourself.

Who love Uconn football...
 
Just play Boyle. If we are really building for the future, CW shouldn't be the foundation.

1. Get well Casey
2. Would be interesting to see if he got his bell rung on a play where 2nd or 3rd string O Linemen were in the game. If so, that is a strike against Bobby D's 'process'. I'm sorry but it has to be said and it is an unintended consequence of the 'process' if true. I am caveating so don't rip me too badly :)

You're reaching.

If it were experienced people would they just suck?

I'm pretty sure people who love UConn football would be most disappointed that the best quarterback on the roster took 4 days to report a concussion.

I certainly can guess at the motivation, but just like I worried about Lutrus and his stingers - I don't want to see Casey decrease his future quality of life by making poor decisions.

Hiding concussions from football coaches is an American past time. It doesn't mean the program is dysfunctional, it means that Casey was worried about being shut down for the season or something similarly extreme that can happen when you have such a string of concussions.

And the "doom" part?

Yes I just posted that I understand Casey's motivation to hide an injury.

At the same time it has bigger implications. But culture changes take time.

Seriously? You and Palatine either think that Boyle today is a better QB than CW or you are saying we should quit on this season entirely...which is it? If it's the former, I'd love to know what support you have for that position and I don't even want to consider the latter.

There was no second or third line that played. Only two reserve players substituted total in the game that were not the starters.

I know that 2 true frosh played on the OL. I find it hard to believe, that if 25 players played on offense, that only 2 OL subbed.

- If Boyle doesn't play on Saturday it must mean that the coaches don't think this is a season ending injury.

- I doubt Casey will play vs Boise since Diaco already planned on using that as a quasi preseason game.

- thank goodness Diaco was able to convince Chandler to come back. Time to rally around Chandler, I hope he shines.

- this sucks big time.
 
Get well soon Casey, I hope it all gets sorted out.

If it is a concussion, I hope you take it easy and get back when you are healthy enough.

Next man in and all, Chandler, you need to take the reins and trust your line and your coaches.

One positive might be that if Whitmer does that bad, it may squash the two qb system

It's a little sinister but it's one silver lining

Oh that sounds great. You are rooting for our starting QB to do poorly.
In retrospect, I am happy CW got the reps. Makes Diaco look like a genius!

No worries. We are still in preparation phase for this season. With a bit of good fortune Cochran will be back by the time the season starts.

Skibs, won't rip you for thinking out loud in public but you know people get hurt playing football. Not the coaches fault...unless he's calling bubble screens to a split wide QB that's already concussed.
 
I'll tell you what, I basically said this before. We recruited one national all American running back, and we have Mike Foley in charge of the OL. How about we scrap this frigging 50 players on offense plan and play some UCONN football and win a game? Please? Anyone? Who recruits an all American and doesn't give him the ball? I want to see a single game rushing record on Saturday. Ram the same damned play down their throat for 60 minutes.

Christ almighty, oyvey, allah and virgins in heaven amen.


Good night.
 
Hope he gets better. But as a coaches son, he should have told the staff way sooner. How much of practice time with the firsts did he take away this week?

I know he is just a kid, but not very smart or in the best interest of the team to keep it quiet.
 
Damn it! I hope that Casey has a quick and full recovery. You almost wish it was a hurt muscle or something like that, where you know it's just going to get better with the appropriate amount of time. Uggh. And he is the future of this team (along with Boyle).

As for Chandler, I think most people on the board know that I believe in this kid and I think he has all the tools to shine. He is free from the cancer that is "GDL-wallpapered-zone-blocking," and I hope he really makes a lot of people say "Awesome!" I CLEARLY didn't want him to get the job like this, but I hope he does a great job now that he has it.

Get well soon, Casey...
 
Yeah old time hockey. Eddie Shore!!!!

Has it been confirmed that it's a concussion? I haven't found anything other than "upper body injury". HCBD said its a day to day injury.

I couldn't agree more. This game shouldn't be about the QB's. I want to see our OL punish a team. I want 200+ Yards on the ground. Get this OL believing that they can be a force. Nothing about our offense changes until our OL starts smashing other teams in the mouth play after play. Get well soon Casey.

Crozier and Rutherford were the only two substitutions on the line period.

If you're like me, or anyone else like me, you'd have kept your mouth shut and kept going too. Drop it.
 
if my kid had three concussions in a year I'd probably advise him from playing again this season

The biggest disappointment of the BYU game was less than 100 yards on the ground.
