Gazette reported this on their site. I assume that means Brandon is out this year. As for Jerminic, pretty disappointing as an upperclassman...especially at a position of need...having this kind of issue...

the spring game just got a little bit more interesting....

Hate to hear that for any kid who has worked as hard as he has. Next man in right? At least I think we have recruited well there over the past few years...plus we have a few guys coming in that may help.

I'd imagine Easley & VandeBerg will be the starters come fall...

Snyder would have made that tackle.

Snyder would have made that tackle.

"Snyder would have ^missed that tackle"

 

[BigD]

Sad

"Snyder would have ^missed that tackle"

Actually he did "miss" the tackle.


Too soon?

Im sure there is a walk on from Shenendoah waiting in the wings.

 

[HawkPhin]

All kidding aside, hope this kid makes a speedy recovery. He's overcome a lot to get where he's at today.

I'm 55 but, damn, can I move....put me in coach

Snyder struggled early, by the end of the year it looked like the light bulb was coming on, he was figuring it out. It sucks he got hurt, he would have been solid this year, imo.

Okay, this really hurts our national championship chances for next season.

Lavar Ball just said you can't win a National Championship with a white safety. Damn, and you know, he's always right. I have a saying about Lavar too, "you can't come off as intelligent, when you aren't."

I'm pretty sure what he actually said was "you can't win no national championship with a white safety".

Or Fredericksburg for that matter.

Snyder was walking and jogging under his own weight at the spring game. Hard for me to believe he suffered a season ending ACL injury while still being able to stand walk and jog for hours, but I am not a doctor.

You can usually still have some range of movement on a torn ACL. It's once you have surgery that you have to keep weight off of it in order to let it heal properly.
