I was told this morning that 7 of our players checked in this morning to be seen because of injuries. I'm sure we will know soon who they are. Lets hope the injuries are not bad or as bad as Renfree.

Some of these are chronic injuries for the season while others were inflicted with hard, late hits on November 7.
While there are some good reasons to play them earlier in the season than we have for years, whenever we play Carolina there are usually many injuries because of how they play.
I am more interested in their healing properly now than going to a bowl game. The program is continuing to make great strides and improve, but is not quite ready for the longer season which a bowl bid brings.

I respectfully disagree as long as playing doesn't worsen their injuries/impact their careers long term. If it's a matter of playing through pain with no long term affect, let 'em play. They have all December to heal before a bowl game, or until late March before spring practice, or until August and the opening of camp. Now if it's a partial tear that can tear all the way, or something like that, then no, don't play them.
