Damn, you're good, I almost made up the same thing but you beat me to it.

Guys settle down, we all hope Franklin can play Saturday but,
1st - he could get hurt worse, I coached for 27 years, sprains take 3 week.
2nd - Give Chance a chance, he runs hard and pass blocks great!
3rd - Red shirt be damned, I watched 4 pre-season practices and scrimmages I thought Leo Ekwoge would be the starter this years.
Finally, we have best offensive line, best Qb in MAC, really good receivers, plus our defense is very, very good.
PJ & staff are worth 2 touchdowns over Enos & staff.

Nobody takes you serious dip, except your therapist. And he only does because her is afraid of you.

RE: Franklin out for at least the next game
Is there still time to forfeit this game altogether? That may be our best option.

There is still time and it is the best option.
Forfeit this one and move on to planning against NIU, stat.
Do it.

Come on, let's not go overboard. We have a chance , but now that it's been confirmed, it will be very tough.

RE: Franklin out for at least the next game
I put it at 80% chance that he will play. It says its not a HIGH ankle sprain which means it's not that serious at all. We will find out more from the weekly presser.

It's tough getting this done when a few people don't follow the script.

HAAAAA no kidding.......Its my opinion but these injuries take time to heal and can flare up at any given moment.....PJ and staff wont be taking any unecessary chances with Franklin we will probably be hearing at game time he wont be ready to go! The proverbial "game time decision"

It's like trying to set an old ladies purse on the ground for your buddies, and do-gooders keep walking by and handing it back to her.

Thank you, much better...........and yes, I totally agree. Since this rumor has been confirmed I'm starting to deal with it. Chance could have a game like he had at Mt. Pee two years ago when he took one 55 yards to the house and Robin Hook said, "There's your dagger!"
