Did I miss an (any) announcement during the season regarding WG never being a consideration again?

He went from on the "Or" list against Auburn (think he had rib issues) to not being discussed again. Maybe the kid simply wants to walk without a limp the rest of his life - definitely a smart plan but, was there ever any explanation as to why he's not been considered?

It's weird. He's our best QB for Petrino's offense but never discussed.

Will was hammered by the "O Line Effect". Yeah, there was no way Bobby was putting him out there with what he already knew was a porous unit. He is easily the most accurate QB of them all, but he never had a chance.

That makes sense and really lets you know how much our O-line shortcomings have hindered this team.

To think for a minute that Bobby wasn't aware of the incredible weakness of the line wouldn't be accurate. I do like that he used Bolin on that huge winning drive, late in whichever game that was. I think it's good to see sparks like that in a head coach. The Clemson guy seems like that. Bobby has definitely adapted to his team. I believe that's why he smiled so much all season, lol. He knew we sucked at unit-sized places, like O Line.

I just assumed it was injury related but to be honest I never heard why for sure.

When Will got hurt at BC last year he was really playing well.
I think this is what we all assumed as well. Between conference pressers and local guys, you would have thought there would have been a question in there from media about his status.

Howie mentioned yesterday that Will was not healthy until recently and is no longer an option at this time. He has already graduated or will graduate at Christmas and could possibly transfer out and play elsewhere immediately next season if he wishes. He also said he worked in the athletic department and may pursue athletic administration or go into coaching. I wish him the best of luck.

Was it still the knee(s) or, did he say what specifically was wrong?
