That means Lafell would get a medical redshirt year, right?

It had to happen...sooner is better than later. We've been kinda' lucky with injuries for the last couple of years. Remember Georgia last year? If our lines can stay reasonably intact we should contend.

Coach McCarthy must have chocked him out for dropping the wide open pass this morning.

No, No, No.....Cable (coach of Oakland Raiders) punched him and as he was falling, he twisted his ankle.

don't really agree with this

see 2007: Flynn, Beckwith, Doucet, Dorsey, Chevis, Zenon, etc. etc.

Lafell is one of the worst injuries that could happen to this team. He might be our best offensive player.

Chuck the Truck is the MVP of the offense imo.

maybe so, but we could handle the loss of Charles Scott with Williams (over 6 ypc), Murphy, and Ford (stud). Losing Lafell would be bigger IMO

We didn't "lose" him yet, we don't know the severity of it.

Just imagine if all of this worrying is based on Les just playing it safe with one of his most important guys.

Ciron Black, Charles Alexander, Perry Riley, and others haven't been practicing in every session either, and they clearly have pretty minor injuries.

With Ridley and Dugas coming back so soon from their injuries, it seems like Molton is the only guy who has picked up a serious injury so far. In that respect, we are in better shape than most times so far.
