The always credible and accurate C34 is saying that 2 starters in the secondary are out for the year. We can assume it's not Jiles because people have been talking about him all week. So that leaves Bryant, Cleveland, McLaurin, Peters, or Durr. Likely not Peters or McLaurin as they were suppose to be starters. Anyone heard anything? Please don't say Bryant.

If 1 of the injured is Tolondo Cleveland that won't totally doom us this year---I would love to see Lashard Durr from Co-Lin fill in for Cleveland at CB and Cleveland be our Nickel DB against pass heavy teams like Texas A&M, Ole Miss, etc.

Never want to see a player get hurt & hopefully we can stay fairly injury free this season.

Remember 2007 when Mike Hening broke his collar bone and we leaned heavily on the Running game and some Pick Sixes on Defense? I wasn't HAPPY that Hening was hurt, but I did enjoy Wesley Carroll almost breaking the record for passes thrown WITHOUT an interception---it helped us get to the Liberty Bowl and I am not sure Hening could have thrown as many passes without an interception.

That's what I was thinking. Happy somebody got hurt?? I hope he's saying glad it was him other than another player. But still that's pretty damn Classless and that's saying alot coming from me...

I get what your saying, but I don't think he meant it that way.

What's the proper way to handle this? Can you feel terrible that two players are injured that could have helped us & worked hard, while also feeling excited that this forces Mullen to play more talented guys?

Or is it more proper to have a time moratorium where we have to act upset & dread the worst before we get to see the bright side & acknowledge that there is a light at the end of the tunnel here?

As a fan, I don't know any of these guys personally & just want my team to win. Additionally, I don't go to practice, where I could see how valuable these two players were. So I'm left just knowing that since I've seen Cleveland & Jiles play, I know they are limited while also knowing that their backups are younger but were more highly recruited players. So how should I look at this news?

I'm in a conundrum

I don't think he meant it that way either. Just poor wording is all.

Bonner likely found his new material though**
