De’Gabriel Floyd out for Spring Football with neck injury from high school

[UT413]

I’m starting to get worried about all of these defensive injuries and these guys not being ready for our big week 2 game.

I'm not too worried about the other injuries. All seem to be minor things that guys will come back from in the Spring or definitely for fall camp.

I am concerned about Floyd, not just for week 2 of this season but his career. It's a bit unclear what is going on (herniated disc in neck?) but if they are worried about possible neurologic injury or paralysis that could be a career ender right there. Really hoping that's not the case, this kid could have a great career both at Texas and in the league.

Anybody know what Overshown is weighing these days? Maybe he can put on 15 lbs and spin down to play a true LB spot this year.

Uh huh.

Not happening. MASH unit dude. I'm trying to ease everyone into that before the spring game. Please try and get with the program.

Understandable due to all the injuries. Good thing the Spring Game doesn’t count.

No seriously---- I know there's some kool-aide drinkers that have their expectations for our defense to be __________________ here.






















But in reality,


















They need to be
































Here_______________ we have a ways to go on D.

LB three deep consists of one single player that’s not a redshirt freshman, true freshman, juco transfer, or walk-on. That one player is a career backup.

I doubt it and even if he was the guy has never played a snap of college football in his life. Chip thinks he’s going to graduate and transfer out.

Things change, he may be back now that Floyd is out for the season. We need players at Mac and he has the tools. Anyway, I would be surprised to see him walk.

I wish I could be that optimistic but I just don’t see the program lifting a criminally based suspension before the legal process has been completed because an early enrollee true freshman linebacker was injured.
