Lets hope he isnt permanently injured just for this season.

i hope rainey doesnt come back before bama game. id like to have him back, but the right thing to do is suspend him indefinitely - plus we dont need the added distraction before a big game at bama much like our last encounter.

Joe:

Thanks for the update on Demps. The only positive to that is the extra minutes Moody and Gllislee got in Demps' absence. keep us posted on result.

more concerning to me are the injuries to Carl Johnson and Pouncey. both moving with noticeable limps. Let us know if anything serious comes from those, particularly Carl Johnson.

[Go Canes lol]

He isnt hurt he just dont want his stock to plummet, by getting squat in Tuscaloosa.
Kinda like Marshall Faulk did before playing the Canes
