Anyone heard the status of his injury throughout the week so far? We need him heathy. A healthy Cooper will get behind the A&M defense every time.

With how our offense is playing will it make a HUGE difference to have him full speed on Saturday or not so much?

AJ was right, we need to spread the ball around more so when the time comes for someone other than Amari to make a play they are ready. Instead of once a blue moon, making it hard to stay focused.


Amari needs to get about 6-8 passes a game.

He's playing through a sprain from what I've heard.

Why would you want your best player to touch the ball less than ten times a game?

Saw Arie K walking around campus in a boot today. Hope it's just precautionary.

Apparently he was full speed and not wearing a brace in the media viewing portion of yesterday's practice.

It's not. Apparently he's playing through something as well. The whole line is banged up a bit and Yeldon's has been playing through a hip injury too.

Per TSWSNBN Ronnie Clark is having surgery on Friday for a torn achilles heel.

Seems that we are having a terrible run of luck from anyone who has thought about playing running back this year.

To save him and get more guys involved.

We need to learn to not depend on him soo much. We have other guys that are good. They need to get a chance.

Because of this.

If other teams are going to double team Cooper, we need to throw the ball to the open target. If they are doubling one man then a qb must be able to read the defense and hit the open receiver.

When that happens the defense will be forced to play honest, and the Coop can get some one via one matchups and take advantage.

Good qbs take what the defense gives you.
