Again...valid claim if this was the first or only game where this happened. This has been a recurring problem for a while now.
Firing is ridiculous, but we seem to have had an amazing number of injuries in games this season. This is also the 2nd straight year where we've had a starting OL go down for the season early in the schedule
You do know Tommy has been offered jobs every year for a lot more that what he was making at LSU? Many of the guys that have worked under Moffitt are doing S&C all over the US. Tommy is a Gayle Hatch Disciple and Hatch is a Alvin Roy Disciple... Alvin Roy had trained Hatch as an athlete along with other noted athletes such as 1958 Heisman Trophy winner Billy Cannon, Green Bay Packer's Hall of Fame fullback Jimmy Taylor, and all-time professional basketball great Bob Pettit. He was also professional football's first full-time strength coach. He installed the first comprehensive, year-round strength program for the San Diego Chargers. As a result, the Chargers went on to win the World Championship... Tommy wouldn't be out of a job long if he left LSU.
Wouldn't it actually be the third? Blackwell went down on the 1st play vs UNC in '10, and then Josh D last year...but wasn't that preseason? Faulk also got injured last year, but he was obviously able to come back. However, Greg Shaw performed magnificently in his absence.
