Another prime example...
Are you referring to Dr. Little?
Lol are you guys serious? I express concern over an injury that Thornton was clearly in pain over and it looked like he turned his foot/knee on what might’ve been a touchdown play and both of your responses are to attack/insult me on an anonymous forum? That’s just funny. All I’ll say to you guys, there’s a reason I rarely reply to people like you. I’m glad Thornton is ok, that’s all that matters.
Good win for Oregon, I definitely don’t miss the days of Mario barely winning these games! Some hiccups but Oregon was clearly better. If Stephens doesn’t fall asleep one play the score is even worse. Also I think people are being too harsh on TT, not like everything was his fault.
It’s your constant negativity on game threads! HTH

Maybe I misunderstood this so I went back and read it. Your exact words are that you are afraid it's a season ending injury. I get your concern and the TV announcers made no mention of it in any specific context so at best it seems the cocensus is we don't know and may not unless someone in the media like Crepea specifically asks Lanning.

Maybe it will come up in the post game presser.

I think it was Thornton that caught the 8 yard loss from Ty on Ty’s first play, so glad I was way off. Usually when you see an awkward fall like that with the player in a lot of pain and the announcers hardly comment on it and they suddenly cut to commercial break it’s a gruesome injury, sure glad he’s ok.

It looked like he just landed on the ground hard and had the wind knocked out of him. Considering he was playing later in the game, that is very plausible.
Did Thornton get hurt twice? The only time I saw him down, it was either his stomach or a bit lower, couldn’t tell. But nothing that looked season ending.

He was hurt twice, the first was the one you are referring to and the second was some kind of knee area injury. He walked to the locker room and gave a thumbs up to someone in the stands. He did have a slight limp.

Don’t think he could start for most of the teams in that conference.
To be fair, it looks like he doesn’t want to be there. IDK if he is just bad or just unmotivated, but even his HS highlights looked better than his gameplay this year. 90% sure he transfers during off season. I also wonder about Butters development if TT is higher than him in the depth chart.

It’s clear Mario has zero qb evaluation skills.
You are 100. Just my belief, but I think that Mario recruited just on star rating and not on fit for the team. Plus his player development skills and game planning were less than stellar. Even players like Big Sewell and. KT never really got any development from Cristobal and his staff. They were only good because of their talent and really didn’t shine as bright as they could have had they been really developed, in my opinion. We are lucky he is Miami’s coach and not here. Look at the off-season for Miami, Cristobal recruited a higher class than Oregon and brought players with him as well as picking up transfers. They lost to MTSU, which reminded me of how competitive we made Stony Brook look and additionally Miami got completely annihilated by average teams like FSU and Duke. It is strange to see their fans blame the 18-21 year old players and keep giving passes to the coaches.
I am glad the Oregon coaches now seem to be developing players as the year goes on, as well as getting the production from the transfers. Next two games will be a real test for motivating and keeping players focused. UW then Utah is a difficult two game schedule for any team, but at least it is at home.
