Re Whigham, I was responding to the statement that players projected to be on the scoutteam were playing.

Anyway, these injuries are not exactly devastating when you analyze them. Boston College will have at least 10 out for our game and we will have about 16 some of which are players below the 2 deep.

Lost top 3 QBs. Hunt, Dungey, Long. [B]Does this really count as three? I don't think so especially with the emergence of Mahoney. [/B]

Lost too TE. Moore. [B]Not for very long.[/B]
Lost Broyld. Even lost Lewis some. [B]Broyld had already slipped  below the 2 deep and Lewis was not out for very long.[/B]

Lost a few on the DL. Johnson, Williams and a couple that escape memory. [B]Don't know how many games they missed.[/B]
Lost Arciniega - [B]valid but not out for whole season.[/B]
Lost our best performing LB in Bennett [B]late in the season.[/B]

Have had to play a real young DB. Even a couple of those like Winfield and Ellison got hurt. Williams has been hurt. We've been playing a soph and 3 freshman. [B]Other teams have been playing underclassmen as well and in some cases more than us. The youth excuse only goes so far.[/B]

Other players have been out a game or two as expected. [B]As with every team.

Last year was valid IMO. This year we are not really any worse off than other teams. Hell, home many backup QB's have we played this year?
