If he's that critical to our success get ready for 6-6 season at best.
He would draw Double teams weekly, resulting in Others excelling. and Yes, this team is IMO is very fragile, a loss or two (by a point or two) would devastate them. And i feel this game can easily come down to two or three plays.. every PLAYwill matter, say a Strip sack and momentun changes... SO yes i do feel this team needs someone to be the difference MAKER!!

Take the money and pack your bags. Yall are going to be disappointed each and every week. The sooner he leaves the better off we are. Listing his as probable just bought beamer some time before donors and fans start to get a little miffed. All that money paid to that child for nothing in return. Not even a warm body at practice.

Crawford said he expects Peak to play. He expects Stewart to play on a pitch count.

Not expecting much is a good thing for me

He's not seen any game action since November. Charlie Strong said last week on tv that no matter what, he won't be in game condition- and he was talking positive about him.

I think it's obvious his back was hurt much worse than anyone ever though- including the coaches. My uneducated guess is it could have involved some nerve issues given the extended amount of time he was not doing anything- not even hitting in preseason practice.

I hope our football team has sent him to some back specialists that work with NFL teams to get multiple opinions. If not, we are taking a risk if he was hurt again that we are accused of "rushing him" or "we should have let him sit and we don't care about protecting our best players" and that sort of crap being said about us.

Lets see, he was a 5 star recruit out of High School, was a Freshman All American at USC, and is 6'5" 250 lbs, you cant teach size!!! was injured last year, played hurt.. To be honest, i didnt think he wold be on the field as a Gamecock again!!
I thought he was done as well. We'll see how he plays, if he plays.

Just take the money you've been given and invest now. You won't be an NFL player and you won't be remembered positively here. Cannot believe we give children this kind of money for nothing.

just dont see the hype with this guy...enlighten me
I wish I could enlighten you but there‘s not much to go on.

Even if he’s healthy, I don’t get the impression he’d lay it all on the line this close to going to the NFL. I think he’d like to have a couple of good games against solid opponents before shutting it down for the year. But that’s just speculation on my part. Maybe he’s a standup guy and isn’t in it just for the money . . . .

This has seemingly been a rather serious injury and long recovery. Haven’t even heard that he is practicing, maybe I’m just behind. But if I am not, there’s no way this is a thing.

You are seriously on a hate trip if you think a healthy Dylan Stewart won't be an NFL Player. He was injured and had an up and down year, but that happens with players. Think I recall Jadeveon having 2 sacks his senior year with us. He is still collecting NFL Checks.

Key word: "Healthy"

Stewart is not healthy. Beamer said he "basically has a broken back" ....
Beamer also said just two or three weeks ago that Stewart hasn't had any physical contact, not even hitting the sleds... Why???? - (Because he's not healthy enough)

There is ZERO CHANCE Stewart plays on Saturday. If you're the coach, are you putting someone's child out there to let another SEC team pound on them, when they haven't had any physical contact since November of last year???? - I think not. - Which is exactly why you won't see Stewart on Saturday, his NFL stock is dropping fast. I'm with Johnny on this one, the sooner this kid leaves us, the better. Sucks he got hurt, I wish him the best, but bye.

(btw, coop, I know we butt heads a lot, but this time it's strictly football. We disagree and that's ok) I agree with your premise.....if he was healthy. I don't think he is. We'll find out saturday

Unless Stewart has been secretly practicing, I agree there is no way he plays Saturday.

I think coaches today don't take the injury reports seriously at all. If you list a player as "probable" and he doesn't play, so what? If you list him as "doubtful" and he does play, so what? Unless a player is listed as "out", he can play or not play and it doesn't matter.

I believe Beamer mentioned last week that Stewart and Peak were practicing in pads? He said something about their status being positive b/c he said "sorry to disappoint the conspiracy theorists."

Even so, 2 weeks of practice after no football activity since November won't cut it.

There is a lot of distance between "practicing in pads" and 100%.

I'm not a hater. I value truth, honesty and hard work. I've seen neither from him or the coaches regarding him. I also don't like giving children like him money for nothing. As a GC Club member and ticket (4) holder for 55 years I dang sure get to express my thoughts.

That seals it then, he ain’t playing. Beamer just can’t help himself at saying pointless things in defensive ways.

Man, hear me..... there is nothing more that I would love to see than Stewart become the next Clowney. I really mean that.

But, I'm sorry, you just can't throw any kid out there to the wolves in a full speed SEC game with only 2 weeks of physical practice. It would be unethical of the highest order. You know in your heart that what I'm saying is true. It's not right. UNLESS - Beamer has been lying the whole time, (which is really just coach speak and not real lying, which I'd be fine with)

But if Beamer was telling the truth about no physical nothing until just a week or two ago? Nah, I'm sorry bro, not right to throw a kid out there on the field like that. Not right at all.

From what I know about pretty much all college football practices, a week of practice does not mean 10 days of ones vs. ones full contact scrimmage. Most programs have one, maybe two days of full contact, ones vs. ones full speed, full contact scrimmage in a week. So, if Stewart has been back practicing for 2 weeks, he probably only has about 4 days of full contact. Full speed in an SEC game is a totally different creature.

I will be interested to see what Stewart and Peak actually do.

I know Aaron Donald is older, but its taking him some time to get into game shape.

Let me be honest. I've never liked Stewart's work ethic and effort in games. He has been suspiciously hurt constantly. Didn't we get burned by juice just prior to this happening. So I'll stand by my assumption that he is playing the money bag game and we are getting burned again. It makes it hurt more as a donor. I'm getting screwed by children and the university is taking my seat I've had my entire life unless I double my annual donation.

So there.

I was wrong. Stewart played. - Will eat my crow. I'm glad he got some reps and didn't injure himself. I wasn't sure about Beamer until tonight. I really wanted him to work out here...but it's obvious to me now that is not going to happen. He sunk his stock into the SS. Sellers and that's what will seal his fate. Dumb move.

But I'm not deflecting. Stewart played and I was wrong. Bottom line.
