Why are we not seeing Derrick Mitchell?

[tksirius]

I wish I was trolling you. That's seriously what I saw. Akrum said he's OK. Kirk said he's fine and that RBs get dinged.

Mitchell looked worse off. He was trying to walk to see if it hurt. He stopped after a few steps and got back on the crutches.

These guys have top-notch medical care and I'm sure he's getting great treatment. It's only Tuesday so who knows how he'll feel in the next few days.

Kirk did not mention him by name but did not rule out anybody medically for this week.

Can't tell if serious or just double-downed on the trolling...

Unfortunately he's not trolling unless the article he wrote was bogus.

Yes Wadley wouldn't tip the defense off as much as Mr 3rd and Long ... Wadley is a much better option as is Daniels. Wadley is getting it done running and catching the ball. Both are a whole lot quicker Mitchell = tooooo sloooowwwww..

Yeah, except Mitchell is a WAYYYY better blocker and at picking up blitzes than Wadley is. And Mitchell runs the 'screens' better than Wadley. But what do the Iowa coaches know? They should listen to you......

It's amazing that if anyone tells you folks something you don't want to hear, or is against you 'beliefs', someone is 'trolling' you. Good grief.......

Agreed on both your points. But see how you ended it...ya just can't help it though, I know.

I'm a big DMX fan too.

Maybe a better blocker but not even close to Wadley on the screens. Even after his drop this weekend. I can't say the coaches would agree with you either.

It's Rutgers weak. Relax they suck so the injured can mend. That said, Scheel can't get open. If he's still dinged up, play someone else.

The staff is not getting the most out of their talent. We do not have less talent than NDSU or NW . . . nor do we have equal talent to Rutgers and Minnesota. Between WR and RB positions, DMX needs more touches. I'd rather see him catching passes than McCarron. And I'm not saying Riley isn't a good story, but Mitchell is better in space and he has the size to break tackles and sustain blocks longer.
