    From what I heard he has already redshirted so this won't affect his eligibility.
    Don't know if that makes sense but that's what I heard.

    After seeing the replay last night, the hit on the two-point conversion in the 3rd quarter seem to cause the injury. After he got up, you could see him favor his right shoulder as he ran off the field. Then he went into the locker room.

    Then he got popped again on the last play and made another trip to the locker room.

    He is going to burn a year of eligibility whether he plays this year or not. He redshirted his first year.

    Well, after he was knocked down at the end of regulation he got up and you could tell that he had tweaked it. The hit that you're referring to no doubt contributed to his injury. I just hope he's okay, either way.

    Shame on those fans who bashed Flynn. He stuck with it till the very end of the game, and played well.

    And did anyone else see the anguish when he threw the interception on the final 2-pt. conversion. That scene of him falling to the ground in agony may well end up being the face of this season of "what might have been..."

    He's a true Tiger who was more than patient for his entire five years here.

    Even though Byrd was covered like a dog in heat, and Flynn chunked it in there anyway, I really don't blame him for that play. He was set up to fail when the play was called from the sideline.

    I wondered why we didn't put Hester in to power it in, as has worked so many times this year. But...would our defense have ever stopped Arkansas? I'm not positive they would have.

    My little six-year-old was still complaining this morning @ breakfast about losing last Friday. I think I officially have her hooked as a Tiger fan now, even though she said she hates that we lost her first game in Tiger Stadium.

    Saw it? I'll never forget it. This picture just wrenched my heart and anyone who's competed will know how much painemptiness he had to have here. I also, as a parent, felt for his mom who I'd seen him embrace so warmly and sincere before the game for Sr. day introductions. And his father who'd thrown the ball with this young man as a kid.

    To look at it just pulls on you so hard.
