It pays to have good back-ups, the injury bug is starting already.

He shopuld be back by the Fall and in the meantime, someone else can step up and get some reps. Nothing wrong with depth.

Hehe, I get to be the first smarta$$ to ask... it must be Fulmer's fault, right?

I guess so, VolCane. He's making them practice too hard. What a terrible coach.

He was just stayin' the course and poundin' his fritter.
It WAS Fulmer's fault that Cottam got hurt. Fulmer caused Chernobyl, too. Look it up.
