According to Marc Morehouse Marvin McNutt is out for spring practice due to injuries. He recently had surgery on his shoulder and thumb which explains the sling he was wearing. Morehouse also said he will be ready to go in the fall and expects him to have a big year.
 
This isn't too big of a hit. Spring is more important to the underclassmen anyway. We already know McNutt is the number one receiver next year. Now the underclassmenr get a chance to shine and fight over who takes the two through four spots.

You are correct. He wouldn't see much anyway other than a few reps. KD will have a chance to get better and from what I understand, Martin-Manley is a monster. He could really suprise everyone this year.

It's not great...would like to see he and JVB get as many reps together as possible.

Agreed. Vandenberg has had plenty of opportunity to get reps with KMM, Don Shumpert, and Kenan Davis when practicing with the second team.

McNutt is probably the one WR on our roster that JV has the LEAST reps with.

It's nice to see our underclassmen be in a position to step up, however, it is certainly concerning that our #1 WR won't have many reps with our #1 QB going into fall camp.
 
We need this kid badly, I really hope he plays all 12 games this year. I know guys like
Davis have all the talents but McNutt is the only proven WR we have.
 
It's not good, but this will give K Davis and other WR a great chance to get reps and build with JVb.
Maybe KMart can really get established.......trying to find some good in this

I know that on a practice basis all QB's throw to all WR's at least some of the time daily. Obviously not as much as Stanzi, but they do have some history from practice.
 
Summer is one of the most important times for the #1 QB to develop chemistry with his top WRs. I'm not all that concerned about McNutt being out for the spring. It's never good when a player is out for ANY practice ... however, most important of all is for the guys to get healthy. Furthermore, as others have indicated, the camps are a time that tends to help the underclassmen the most. Of course, that said, it really helps the underclassmen to see the upperclassmen leading by example. McNutt could have flexed more "leadership muscle" had he been healthy.
 
when did the injuries occur? It seems Marvin dropped some balls late in the year (at MN I recall 1 or 2) he normally finished
