If Warren was The Truck, I’d be the Horse & Buggy.

Perhaps Doaks returns for his 11th year?

Nobody talks much about Ethan Wright since we have so many guys ahead of him but he was an early enrollee and iirc several observers commented on how good he looked in offseason practice and training. He could probably play other positions at 6-1 193 but UC lists him as a RB so I'm presuming that's his best position. And that makes sense based upon his tremendous success in HS (albeit in Division 5). From his UC bio:

Quote:... Gatorade Player of the Year for the state of Ohio ... A three-time Ohio Prep Sportswriters Association Division V First-Team All-State selection ... named OPSWA Division V Player of the Year in 2017 and 2019 ... capped his prep career with 7,804 rushing yards, ranking No. 4 all-time in Ohio, 130 TDs (2nd) and 105 rushing TDs (6th) ... finalist for Ohio's Mr. Football Award in 2019 after rushing for 2,385 yards and 36 touchdowns this past season, leading the Panthers (9-4) to the Division V, Region 17 championship game ...

I don't know what the kids say these days, so I'll just go with that dog should hunt...

Any injury report update from the Memphis game? Specifically Pierce and Bush.

I'll take a way too early guess that neither will be available Saturday or we would have heard from the staff that they are at least expected back.

Bush looked like he was concussed a bit when he hit is head on the turf on the dive.

The way Pierce’s elbow hit the turf and jammed straight up into his shoulder socket, my guess is we won’t be seeing him on the field for a while.

The announcers said they thought Bush had a shoulder as well. He came down hard on that one side when he hit the turf and appeared to be holding his arm/shoulder when they walked him to the locker room.
