Utesuit

I don’t think this one relates to us…that’s just my opinion though!

Haha…I’m not Whit and I don’t mind sharing info when I can, if I can.

Go Utes!!!! Can’t wait for this Saturday!!

I expect Tyler to be quite a bit more mobile this week. Grade 1 MCL is typically 1-3 weeks so fingers crossed he’s closer to 2. Big game this week…came out very healthy outside of Kuithe on Saturday so should be close to full strength.

Cannot wait for this game. Go Utes!

Tyler’s status hasn’t been decided as of last night. Still trying to evaluate his effectiveness vs. the risk. If he can’t go Lisk is the 2.

Everyone associated with the program is confident in Lisk. He’s earned what he’s gotten in both his preparation and understanding of the offense and he’s practiced better than Shelley in most weeks. He doesn’t make many mistakes and usually makes great decisions. Shelley is clearly capable but IMO was better suited in last years offense…[Read more]

He’s not 100% and works really hard just to be ready to get out there each week. Has another soft tissue injury bothering him as well that is minor enough to play through but limits him some. He hasn’t had a chance to work on his body/craft, as he has mentioned, since coming off his mission, jumping right into camp and then losing the knee. Thi…[Read more]

Yes…Pac12 special with Yogi yesterday. Zach is doubtful for this week still IMO but then with the bye and Oregon St I wonder if if it makes sense to hold him out until ASU to make sure he’s 100%. Should be able to beat OSU without him right? That said, he’s a real “football player” so might be tough to keep him off the field until then.…[Read more]

Tyler is in a boot…a few others are as well by the way. Most participated in walk through’s however. Doesn’t usually happen if they don’t expect to play so he’s probable in NFL terms. Not that uncommon to see precautionary measures taken to protect minor injuries. No new info on Zach. Depends on how he heals and responds to treatme…[Read more]

Haha…optimism at it’s best. Love it. I’m personally hoping for a short 3 weeks. Think we can run on them some regardless this week. Add the bye and be ready the following week is probably best case scenario from my point of view. A lot of variables in play.

Again I hope to know more tomorrow.

Questionable is the only word I can use right now.

Lisk was the 2 for the 3rd straight week at S.C. He’s earned everything in front of him. If the coaches started Nacua over Thompson would you trust that? Dixon over Simpkins? We wouldn’t say a thing here…hell most wouldn’t notice. Point is you trust the coaching staff, last weeks prep notwithstanding, so why wouldn’t you trust them now.…[Read more]

I’ll know more tomorrow but If Vegas hasn’t taken it off the board as a 6-7 point favorite then I don’t think there is any definitive news on Tyler yet and they’re leaning towards him playing. If it goes “off” then we may have an issue. They’re not about giving away free money and I don’t think either Lisk or Shelley would be favored by that…[Read more]

I think Coach Whitt said it best…it’s a very mature and experienced team. Most of the impact guys have been to their place before so that shouldn’t be an issue. I think you’ll see them try and stop Zach and the playbook opens up in the throw game. Tyler has been incredibly efficient so far and honestly I expect nothing less tomorrow night…[Read more]

My guess is we’ll be pretty close to full strength next week on the injury front.

Muscle tightness in warm ups…completely precautionary. Was dressed and ready to go in the first half. Nice to have the depth we do on the defensive line.

Yes…more precautionary than anything. He’ll be good to go soon.

Merit based. Lisk has earned it so far.

I think it makes sense for them to sit out the next two weeks. Good chance they’re not fully healthy so I doubt they go. If that happens it gives us a chance to develop the depth behind them. Not a terrible scenario.

Two DB’s will be fine…two OL are most likely just sprained ankles. Sometimes they’re tricky though. Just depends how they respond. Don’t think it’s anything major but time will tell.
