Rylie Mills

That’s really tough if true. Just a disaster of a season injury wise. Wasn’t there a lot of people that hated the S and C coach hire in the off season
 
Hearing....from who lol

The person who said we wearing black jerseys ?
I hope so lol.

Just hearing subtle rumors on different boards. No one is coming out and saying it though. If we can stop the run without mills I think we can win this game without him.

We gonna need some beef up front. Is cross and Rubio enough ? Mills didn’t play every snap early on against Indiana and we did fine vs their run game.
Hinish , Mukam ??? Idk.

I really and optimistic hoping that sevianno can get some reps , is he hurt also ? Have t seen him in the game since week 1 vs atm.
I heard playoff games don’t count toward redshirts. Thoughts. ??
 
I dont believe internet sources. They are wrong 9 times out of 10.

I will say that every time to sources from the internet
Marcus Freeman. Tough one. We are really getting beat up on the Defense. Gonna be an even tougher game now. Rylie was playing his best ball -- feel terrible for the guy, he was moving up the draft board.

Unfortunate. Such a violent, physical sport. Honestly I'm surprised there aren't more significant injuries. No team is immune. Next man up. That's all you can do.

Yeah he was a having a big back half of the year. He was playing like a beast and was really good vs Indiana before he got hurt. And he is the emotional leader on that DL

100. CFB is a brutal sport, and the next level is even worse.
 
So we're going to soldier on then, right?
What else can we do but soldier on.
Just sucks cause ESPN talking heads are going to love watching Georgia pound us into submission cause we just aren’t big enough.
And continue the ND “ overrated” narrative.
Then chase will show up and chime in with the 5 star argument that is old.
We’re going to have to sell out to stop the run . Fortunately Georgia QB is not a great passer as of yet. So we’ll see. Hopefully it turns out like Louisville 2023 when we had the much bigger o- line but they had the quicker smaller guys on D- line who just flew right by our big slow o line to the football and gang tackled.

JMO.
 
This is why I keep asking but to no avail about sevillano. Did he play lately ? Is he hurt ? Are they trying to redshirt him ?
He’s a 330 plus space eater who I’ve seen a few times blow up our starting o line. He is definitely powerful enough to be of use.

He has already met the requirements to redshirt this year and will still be available to play. I’m not sure where he fits in. They will probably go mostly with a 3 man rotation vs Georgia. Maybe select spots to put him in.

Onye was a big loss. Sucks, but these injuries are far from insurmountable.

Yeah, it sure seems like we've been injury plagued this year, worse than normal. And yet the defense more than soldiers on, it barely misses a beat. I suppose there's a breaking point, hopefully this isn't it.

Maybe he hasn’t played for a reason. Maybe he simply isn’t ready for this. Who knows.
 
This utterly sucks beyond sucking! Damn. I feel for Mills.

Honestly, this one player loss is a massive disadvantage. This might be a margin of difference.

For sure. But Georgia has injuries too.
If we can stop the run with the personnel we have. We can win this game no doubt.

We’re going to have to put our corners on an island , but I’m confident that they can be up to the task. Just need the front 7 to get pressure.

Yes. A Landow lead Denver Broncos lead the NFL in season ending injuries for every season he was there. He comes to ND and we start seeing season ending injuries. Everyone on this board says, "Give the guy a chance" or "There's no correlation here." As far as I see it, Landow is living up to the expectation that preceded him.

Those are very valid points.

Problem is rarely does a coach get 1 year and fired so we most likely have him another year.

My issue is we have top 5 coaches in offensive and defensive coordinators.

Then look at Landow who isn’t even mentioned as top 50 strength and conditioning coach in college football.

Guess who does have top 10 strength and conditioning coaches ? You already know the answer.

Come on now, did you watch the game? Mills' injury had zero to do with the S&C coach. It was just a freak injury. RM's knee hit Snead as RM was spinning around in the process of sacking Rourke. Bad luck. Pure and simple. I don't know what RM's MRI revealed, but it sure looked like he hyperextended the knee. If the injury is a season-ender, I suppose he probably must have torn something. It sucks, but to try and pin the blame for Mills' injury on Landow is simply not a rational take.

season ending at this point in the year is a max of 4 weeks. which could be a minor injury, which may need several weeks to heal.

Well stated.

This is true. Mills injury had nothing to do with S and C coach.

Is that for sure, 'cause maybe if he was stronger he would have avoided the injury, like if his legs were stronger. And it's possible to decrease the incidence of common football injuries by virtue of greater physical, bodily strength by which to withstand them, before something like a knee ligament strains and then tears altogether. Including the one that Mills suffered. I don't know if that's true in that case at all, and probably isn't. But that's the idea. Their bodies aren't strong enough! They crave greater sinew!

We need a new S & C guy! Too many injuries!

I can agree with that.

My issue is not the injuries from hits , rolled up on , landed wrong etc.
It’s the injuries like bothello and traore where they were running and made a cut and boom ACL injury. No one even touched them guys and they went down for the season. There is something to these injuries that are off and we saw the same thing in 2015-16 until we hired Balis. Remember 2016 game I believe vs Texas home opener. Taurean Folston made a quick cut up field and again torn ACL. Done for the season. Was never even touched. There’s something off here.
