Floyd Update

[The Polish Irishman]

CW said at his presser:

Floyd has begun to run at practice and they hope to have him back by Pitt Game, maybe.

 

[PADOMERNUT]

seriously???? oh baby!!!!!!

 

[kmoose]

Where did you see this? I just watched today's presser, on the website, and didn't hear Floyd even mentioned.

 

[WhoDeyIrish]

Hell Yeah

Michael Floyd of Notre Dame Fighting Irish could return by November - ESPN

 

[kmoose]

Found it:

Around the Bend: Charlie Weis: Notre Dame receiver Michael Floyd could return by Pittsburgh game

This could be a huge lift, for the rest of the team. If they can pull it off, and not lose before getting Floyd back..........I think they are definitely BCS-bound, and we would have every reason to believe that they can win a BCS game, with Floyd back in the lineup. That's assuming that the defense continues to get better as the season progresses.

 

[Steve]

WOW.

 

[tko]

Floyd in the lineup makes us so dangerous again. Also, with Tate taking his game to a new level in Michael's absence, that just adds to the intrigue.

 

[Junkhead]

It's only been 3.5 weeks, and he's back in full pads??? He might as well just heal himself, I bet he could do it!

 

[tko]

it's all the time spent in the chamber healing. Floyd=Superman

I saw this on ESPN News as well. I thought out for the whole year was extreme myself when I heard the nature of that injury. Pitt game would be 8 weeks from the injury. That sounds about right.

 

[The Polish Irishman]

Hopefully there will be no setbacks...no need for him againist Navy and WSU

 

[IrishGolden09]

This is great news, I thought the whole year was a bit much as well. USC WR Ronald Johnson is expected to play this week after injuring his collarbone about 2 weeks before the season started, so 8 weeks sounds about right.

Hopefully there will be no setbacks...no need for him againist Navy and WSU

maybe so, but i'd like him on the field catching TD's and giving us a cushion of a lead. i swear, if i have to pace around the house full of angst and tension for the navy and wsu games i'm going to lose it!

 

[nlroma1o]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!!! If we get him back for the last three games our stock will rise considerably IMO. Best news I've heard all day.

Go Irish! Beat Trojans!

Floyd healing faster than expected | The Journal Gazette, Fort Wayne, Ind.

 

[Junkhead]

Looks like all of our praying is working!

 

[mick2]

this is awesome, he can really help push my fantasy team to the championship!

oh and its good for ND too.

 

[Riddickulous]

FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOYD!

 

[Swash]

Maybe this is just to through of USC!
Maybe he will run out of the tunnel in full pads!!!

But if it takes him alll the way to the Pitt game, I guess that's OK too....

Get well sooner (than expected)

 

[bert2834]

This would be awesome!

I am going to the Pitt game and would love to see Floyd in action!

 

[Stalking_Eagle]

Floyd = WOLVERINE!!!!!!!!

 

[Riddickulous]

Floyd = WOLVERINE!!!!!!!!

Anything but a goddamn WOLVERINE.

You've never heard of a bear? Or an ostrich? Or a great white shark?

 

[phork]

Don't rush back if you don't have to. Frankly I would have loved to have him for USC, but if he can't play (obviously), then rest up for the bowl game.

 

[NY_IRISH_FAN]

Wow this is some great news

 

[irishfan]

Just read on DD that there is a rumor going around campus that he will be playing against USC. Just wishful thinking I assume.

 

[jakerbluegold]

If he is......that would truly be amazing. I just don't see it happening until after Pitt myself, but to have him back at all is wonderful.

 

[NDinL.A.]

Just read on DD that there is a rumor going around campus that he will be playing against USC. Just wishful thinking I assume.

Nah, although I wish it would happen too, he ain't playing. He went through practice at half speed, and didn't even catch balls like the rest of the guys. He was jogging with Jimmy while the rest of the team was going hard. It's great to have him out there, but he's sitting vs. SC...

 

[Riddickulous]

I'd like Floyd back as soon as he's healthy and ready.

Until then, I'll take Golden and Shaq Attack.

 

[Rocket's Rocket Fan]

That would be great. I cant wait to have him back.
