I thought I saw a tweet yesterday that said he could’ve gone back in, but maybe I’m wrong.
In a postgame interview Coach Freeman mentioned that Faison said that he's fine and will be ready for next week. Sounds like some ice packs and extra tape and he'll be ready! Sigh of relief!

I thought his knee was gonna be toast the way it was bent back under him. The fact he got up and ran off was surprising alone.

Hip drop tackles need to be outlawed in CFB like they are in the NFL now. They result in an injury 6% of the time which is absolutely insane.

Is freeman doing his Monday weekly PC today at noon? Curious to see assessment of Faison 36 hours later, and any other injuries, it was a physical game. Like Evans real status moving forward, is it like Raridon last year where they slowly bring him on? If so, we have an issue at TE that i didn't expect.

Since it’s a National Holiday, I’d expect it would be tomorrow.

I completely understand this and if it happens then it happens but at a certain point this is just going to turn into flag football, there is literally no way to ensure no one gets injured. There are already so many things in place that make playing defense incredibly difficult.

It’s the same idea as a horse collar though. Just an unreasonably dangerous way to tackle. And it’s poor form. It’s how a 6 year old tackles his dad lol.

He is quite clearly our smoothest and most explosive YAC receivers. Tons of short area quickness and elusiveness displayed on that one catch yesterday... only to hurt his ankle again. I feel like we are missing him more than we realized.

100% missing Faison on offense.....Quick twitch, and attention to detail...He creates separation and gets open! With that being said...I say he rests up to get ready to complete the hat trick in LAX...LOL

LAX experience really is a plus on the gridiron for guys with his level of athleticism. The only thing missing on that spin move was his stick. And their defenders were like WTF was that?

I know it is still an absolute non-starter, but I'd love for him to commit to football fulltime. If the short area quickness translates, I think he has a role in the modern NFL.

II board had the scoop on Gray.

IE was dead wrong.
For being dead wrong, IE was the only reason I knew something was up. You are correct the original source was II. Fortunately, like many things on IE there is a large variety of rumor/information from various sources. I don’t have II, only ISD. Move on.

Its a mentality. Yes they have lost a couple games they shouldnt have, but anyone who either cant see or still denies the difference in this program under our current staff is either fucking blind or doesnt want to.
To be fair, many of our WRs blocked like maniacs under the previous regime as well. Was kind of a point of pride for a lot of them.

100% about the WRs. I more
Meant overall team attitude. There has not been a single game we looked like intimidated or there is just no way we can beat whoever it is we played, even in losses. Way too many of those under BK.
