Just like I said. Never should have played against Michigan. At least it’s official.
Greg job Greg ! Keep marching out those inexperienced under developed QBs putting your best players in harms way!
Wait we were told that UAB isn’t worthy of AAU status and real medicine isn’t practiced there. And now we’re sending our athletes there for surgery?
This has been the least enjoyable season in quite some time.
In one poster's mind, Greg should get a do over for this year and an extra year extension.
If that was my son there was 0.0 chance he was suiting up at Rutgers this year. Could have gotten the same pay day, and perhaps increased his draft stock having a real QB at higher profile school and won more.
Schiano the GM failed again. Putting $2MM into a receiver, as good as he is, was silly considering all the needs the team has.

It’s a developmental program! If he lost 4 of the player he developed it would have blown up his whole charade. He had to retain at least one and pay through the nose to do so.
It's the idiotic developmental thing. As smart as Schiano purports himself to be, it's very obvious in this current iteration of college athletics the last thing you want to be is a developmental programs.
Said pretty much the same thing the first time he uttered it. In the new world we live in. You can’t afford to develop anything. All you’re doing is developing someone else’s roster.
Sad that we will never see Duff in scarlet again. Had some spectacular plays and arguably with a full year of more could have been in the RU wr goat discussion. Just not enough games
It does hurt
If we had any depth we could absorb the some of the players in the secondary and OL.
But not Duff.
Depth you say? Dyzier Carter is Doubtful on the injury report.
It's Ben Black and Houston time!
Why did Schiano allow Duff to play against Michigan?
It was very apparent he was quite injured.

He made a business decision in order to be healed and ready for the NFL combine.
C’mon fellas. Epic grifters aren’t stupid. He absolutely knows developmental programs aren’t a thing anymore. It was just his excuse du jour, one of many. His excuses are arent truths. He knows. They are all over the place, like a small butterfly trying to fly into a 30 mph wind prompting him to call a TO.
Did you see Daboll storming the tent to get Dart back in a game in his last year? When the job is on the line and best player gets sidelined you really want to get them back in lol. In normal circumstances GS probably doesn't risk Duff. Ankles are weird because they are a high stress/pivot point. You can run and do drills on a rehabbing ankle and it can feel good but as soon as you press and strain against another player you get injury back (I had that). It was def a premature move bringing Duff back. I read GS explaining his decision and it sounded lame.
This sucks for him - he is in good hands though - his doctor is part of the Andrews Sports Medicine and Ortho surgery by Dr. James Andrews. Great facility and Surgeons.
Coaches are paid to win...At that point, Dr's most likely told Greg what he wanted to hear- "If the kid can play through the pain, he will not do further damage" Then you ask Duff "can you give it a go" and almost every football player says "yes"
If it is a high ankle sprain- he isn't going to finish our season anyway- get it repaired now. Smart choice
Yeah- again- the Coaches only want to get the win. Just like the NFL and Dart - they may have a concussion protocol to protect players, but Daboll was hoping to get Dart out of that tent before they diagnosed it. And they will always have a lame reason for it to the press.
More violence causes more injuries. We must accept the consequences and the suck.
The stands may soon get violent, if there will be anybody in them on Saturday.
The only violence in the stands will involve either uncontrollable vomiting. Or crying. At least everyone will have their own row.
When you’re preparing for the NFL draft and have 1st round potential based on how you test at the combine.
Elattrache- is very good- as you said, one of the best in the world. I do not know if the ankle is his specialty, so, it would most likely be one of his other specialists that would have performed the surgery. And I would assume his practice also has some of the best in the world for various surgeries as well. I think Duff would be in great hands either way.
I only lean toward Andrew's practice because I am very familiar with them.
I'll be curious to see how fast Duff is at combine. I like Duff better than Charlie Becker but not by tons. Becker doesn't make the circus catches like Duff but he's real fast and often has to slow down for passes. He was Tenn state champ in 2 hurdle events
Ahhh- completely understand- his profile makes it look like it is mostly the knees and elbows, didn't really mention too much about foot/ankle. Like I said though- he would be an obvious great choice as well.
Duff is currently in great hands and would have also been in great hands if he went with your guy as well.
