Why wasn't Fluff Bothwell on the Miss State injury report?

By Thursday they change him from "probable" to not being on the report at all. At one point in the game the sideline reporter said the coaches knew his foot was injured but "hoped he could play through it". After one play they pulled him. It obviously made no difference Saturday, but we are going to have SEC mandated injury reports, then they need to be honest, or other coaches will play games with it too (looking at you, Lane).

He started and reaggravated the injury on his first carry. Not required to designate possible injuries.

Well, the gambling line can be something I care about. But again, wither don't do it (which would be fine) or do it honestly, which would include calling out bogus reports.

He dressed and played and determined he couldn't go. You think we falsified injury reports to make Bama prepare for the better player?

Its an availability report not an injury report. If he was playing no matter the injury, then hes going to be availabile. Same with Kamario

the point is some coaches just list a bunch of people for various injuries that almost every player has, doesn't really solve anything. Anyone who saw him play in mizzou game would have thought he was questionable at best for bama

Fluff not being on the report also doesn't make it a bogus report - he literally played. He was not out.

His name is Fluff, did you really think he was going play long against this Bama defense?

even if they had not played him i don't see the need to report he would or wouldn't play...logic tells you he was a game time decision and it seems as though he tried to give it a go

Does it affect you personally if Fluff's not on the report?
Some of you worry about the dumbest shite.

It's not an injury report, it's an availability report.
