Any word why he did not play? I knew he came out of the Purdue game, but Weis said it was only cramps.

said he tweaked his hamstring. Fleming told the coaches he couldnt play.

We will need him for USC, he has been one of our better players on D.

Forcier juked him out of his jock strap several times. We do need him for the game though. I think Kapron is starting to come into his own. Our problem has been our secondary this season. Which coming in thought was our strongest part of our defense. Ethan is also starting to play a little better, got a tough task with the USC offensive line.

Charlie mentioned in the Sunday press conference that Fleming worked out during the UW pregame warmups but told the coaches his hamstring was no go. I don't recall any mention that it was related to the PU game but then Charlie doesn't offer much when discussing injuries.

Fleming at least got last Saturday and the bye week to rest the hamstring.

With the poor footing due to the rain througout the day it might have been a blessing that Fleming didn't line up. He may have ended up in a lot worse shape than he was before game time. Hopefully, he'll be relatively 100% for the U$C game!

Darius Fleming is the BOSS.

Alot of the younger guys have steadily improved. Fleming, Ethan johnson, and KLM especially have really gotten better with more PT
