2016 Roster Up...

[orangepassion]

Very surprised about Lewis-Thought he would be our Dieter. Wonder if they asked him to switch positions and he balked.

 

[TheCusian]

Sorry to hear Lewis left but realistically I am not sure how a big a loss it is as he has been constantly hurt the last two seasons. What his leaving does do is put pressure on Babers and the staff to develop Womack or another of the other young guys to add some options because our WR depth is scary bad right now.

I don't think they see that as any more or less of a challenge than it already was/is. New system, new tempo, etc. everyone is needing to be developed.

wonder if he'll try and grad transfer to Maryland.

 

[VirginiaOrange]

He won't play there. Better off going to Towson State if he wants to be closer to home.

 

[kcsu]

Lewis was a good player and i thought that he would do well in this system the bright side is that it will give one of the younger guys more reps and as Dino says year two is the year so those reps will not be wasted on a player who wouldnt be coming back.

[LeMoyneCuse]

Got his degree (or close to it) with little debt before the injuries became too much. Good for him.

He's not the first one to make that choice recently with all the information coming up about the toll injuries take on you in various ways. I'm really disappointed to lose him, but I can't say I blame him when you realize the pros are probably not in your future and have your degree or are close to it

 

[money3189]

Makes sense now. Perkins to WR is not a bad move. He has the better hands of the two.

Maybe he shows up on the Maryland roster as a graduate transfer.

[ForCuseSake]

Smart kid, best of luck to him.

 

[Ringostar57]

Smart move. Graduate and best of luck for the future.

Too bad.

I thought both could have been contributors in 2016. Lester asked Lewis to do a lot of blocking he was not well suited for, which probably contributed to all the injuries he suffered last year.

I hope he is physically able to play next year, wherever he ends up. If he is and he chose to play elsewhere for his senior season, it would be hard to understand. The Babers offense is going to be a fun one to play as a WR, even in year one.

In any event, best of luck to both in the future.

 

[upperdeck]

good for the kid and its not a position that we don't have many options to fill it with.

Lewis probably saw the Concussion movie. Expect this to become more and more common going forward.

He had one more year of football. The players with that issue played a number of years in the NFL.

It's not how long you play - it's about how many you sustain (and how severely). College players don't get the same pub.

I would guess that, as time goes on, the condition will be observed in players whose careers ended in college, if not in high school.

[upperdeck]

that makes more sense. do they not review these things before they get published?

This is SU we're talking about.

 

[upperdeck]

I know and it seems like they replaced most of the people in the fball program and it still happened.

What about childhood concussions. Lots of babies fall off the couch and hit their head real hard. I have seen this many times.
