chamrocck Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 So is Rex definitely out for @UCLA? That would suck. At halftime it sounded like Bo thought all would be OK and he'd just be done for today's game. Quote Link to comment

Personally, I'd sit him, let the young guns play until they prove they can't get the job done or until Rex is back to 100% or close to it. No reason to risk it as we are going to need him for conference play. Quote Link to comment

nuhuskeralum Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Wonder if Marlows injury will yank Jordan's Redshirt, he will be out for probably at least 3 weeks if not more This is a 10 to 12 week injury or longer depending on how it is broken. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Wonder if Marlows injury will yank Jordan's Redshirt, he will be out for probably at least 3 weeks if not more Unlikely. We still have a ton of capable receivers. Quote Link to comment
nuhuskeralum Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I don't think this would affect Jordan's redshirt yet. I was surprised to see as many guys on the field as we did, so it seems like they have some confidence in some of the other receivers not named Enunwa or Bell. Quote Link to comment

There was a rumor going around the pay sites last night that Rex was injured, then he gets 2 or 3 carries and hes out, not sure whats up. Bo also said we would be fine during halftime of the South Carolina game, cant trust a thing he says. I hope they dont try and bring him back when hes not ready, could ruin his entire career, give him a medical redshirt and well see ya next year buddy. Quote Link to comment
tschu Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 We're fine without Cotton - Long and Reed are good. We're fine without Marlowe - he's like 5th on the depth chart anyways. Rex - this goes without saying but we need the guy. I don't need to tell you guys about how his running skills are important, but also from a depth standpoint - we need our starting RB to be there to shoulder the load. Ameer would do fine filling in, but there's nobody behind Ameer to fill in some backup role voids. Quote Link to comment

Cross looks promising as well, not saying we dont need Rex, if this was 2011 i would go ahead and throw in the towel without Rex, this year we can manage without him, but of course we are a better team with Rex.

Hell, if that's true give him his medical redshirt and call it good. We're pretty deep at WR without Marlow even. I mean we're at least 6 deep there. We still have Bell, Turner, Enunwa, Wullenwaber, Allen, and Osborne getting solid reps. Lets not waste a year for Westerkamp if we don't have too. Quote Link to comment

While I'm extremely pleased with our offensive performance against Southern Miss, I'm also very guarded because of our inconsistency in the past. I wouldn't say we can manage without him just yet. Still a huge loss right now and I know you know that. Not really worried until we get to the Wisconsin game and we start conference play. We SHOULD beat all of our opponents up until then.

HuskerShark Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I was just saying this a couple hours ago, without Rex at RB, Abdullah looked good but there is probably a game down the line that we don't win because Rex isn't in the backfield... Or two. Quote Link to comment

I agree, i just have a feeling Rex is done. If it wasnt for the rumor last night, i wouldnt feel this way, it cant just be a coincidence. As im watching the BTN final show Rex was jumping up and down after his TD so maybe it was a fluke thing and the rumor was just a rumor. I just wouldnt be surprised if this nags him all year (which is what the rumor said would happen) Quote Link to comment
