Congrats on beating the odds. Usually once a coma hits the 4 year mark the odds of recovering are almost 0%.
His comments about Hall were interesting pertaining to practicing hard and the "we'll see" kind of angle for what's down the road. Likely just a freshman taking some time to get settled in.
He was finishing 'forward' at least nearly every carry yesterday.
Steven Seagall lasted like 20 years but he woke up fine and started kicking but with an IV still in. It's doable.
Really need to land this guy:

He's putting up solid numbers @ an elite JuCo program and now has Auburn sniffing around.
Josh Bailey & Isaiah Lee need to step up or Willis Singleton contributes as a true freshman like Jamahl Johnson did. Tucker Robertson has essentially been moved to DE. Walk-on Kyle Krezek had a nice high school career @ Xavier, but needs to pound some iron & cheeseburgers.
Btw, anyone else pumped about our young group of WRs? Sean Shaw and others will soon be house hold names in the Big 12
I didn't get to watch the game, because my daughter had four softball games (and I run the team's GameChanger). I did peek at a few plays between innings on the ESPN app, and I saw Jamahl Johnson just absolutely flatten whoever was blocking him and then run over WVU's backfield for a TFL. Loved seeing that play. Wish I could have watched the whole game!
For everyone not giving Lima his due. Johnson is fantastic, I agree, but he has gotten the opportunity to really be the secondary guy. Lima in for first series, then Johnson when they can sub him in. When he blew up that run play on Saturday, that was his first snap of the series. What I am trying to say is FRESH LEGS MATTER. Incredibly talented and to have the ability to have both of those guys fresh is incredible.
Peterson is one of those guys from the state of Iowa that seems to fall in the lap of our rivals out east. I'm glad to see ISU get a hard nose kid, with a high motor and strong work ethic.
That explosive Jamahl Johnson TFL play needs to be a gif. I'd do it, but I'm an internet caveman and have no idea where to start.
I'm curious what advantage you think that would gain. We're already stout against the run. Our linebackers generate pressure on passing downs. Most QBs we face get rid of the ball so quickly more pressure won't impact the pass defense.
More hands in the face of the QB and in throwing lanes would be one reason. We have some really tall/long DL that should be batting more balls down
Damn it. You beat me to it. I'm not deleting mine though. Worth the double burn.
Actually there are no commercial breaks or halftime when I record the games, the beauty of fast forward. The wife is a bit of a night owl and I can be too with the right motivation.
My favorite was when he ran the O lineman straight into their running back for a loss
