Damn. Bad injury news all over the place.

Nobody would notice...would they?  He sort of looks like Gabe or Rhamir......I'm sure he could play either QB or RB.

 

I wonder if anybody has tried that? Surely in the entire history of college football there have been people who seriously have thought that and given it a try.

I do wish he would have hung around. But if the attitude ain’t there, I suppose it’s best for both.

Eh .... "never wanted to leave" =/= "forced to leave"

 

He could have "never wanted to leave" but thought he had to leave when we said we were going to bring someone else in.

Could be. That's the 'nice' reading. But not the only possibility. Could be something more like "enthusiastically encouraged to pursue other opportunities". I mean obviously Rhule came in and did a lot of housecleaning, do you honestly think all of them were voluntary?

Were they all voluntary?  I'm sure not.  

 

Did he ditch the returning started at QB before he ever saw him take a snap?  That seems pretty unlikely.

Why would he do that s when every coach knows players get injured?  It’s not like CT ever acted like a cancer. He could have had Sims and CT on the roster and available.

I took his comment at face value.  Not even bothered how it all went down, because it's history and nobody really knows but CT. 

 

The guy gave his best here.  Practice, weight room, playbook, and with classes.  He represented the University well.  Helped Trey Palmer get drafted with downfield passing. 

 

I wish him all the best.  I feel bad he got injured (here and at FAU).  

 

And even more perspective, like many members here on the board, Casey Thompson is a Nebraska grad.  He got his Masters Degree from UNL.  So yeah, he's a Husker and will always be a Husker.

Sad that Logan wasn't given a fair shake at UNL
