Jacobsen?

I still havent heard why McKay didnt play. Did they mention this during the TV broadcast?

Heard he was injured on the first play. I missed the first couple minutes of the game, so I don't know.

"McKay Jacobson came up gimpy after the first play and was held out for the rest of the game."

Newspaper is reporting a knee, but I heard it was a tweaked hamstring and he sat as a precaution hoping not to strain it like last season. I'd put money on hamstring over a knee with his history.

Hm. Hamstring. Seems like something that could be avoided with the right training...

Wait, wait, let me get this straight: the same training that has made him a regular slow white guy also puts his hamstrings at risk? Weird!



This is the natural result of over-training with squats and cleans; workouts that help you jump, but don't help you run fast. Does anybody want to hire me as the new speed coach yet? I'll work for free if it means this crap will stop.

You're hired! Unfortunately I have no say in the matter. I suggest you send in your resume. A very long shot but you never know. A good cover letter might get someone thinking.

Ok TKD, Im starting to get convinced about your theory/model.

I think I liked you better when you were Eldermars. Hope McKay gets feeling better during the bye week so we have him vs. UNLV.

Definitely, because he is simply indispensable to this offense. :whistle:



I don't believe there is one player on this year's offense who BYU would miss one iota if they couldn't play a game or two.

I know the thread is about McKay and perhaps you are right about not missing him. We did ok without him v. WYO right? But from what I heard out of camp when Payne was out, I think we'd miss him quite a bit (shockingly I know). I also think if we had to play without Kariya or JJ we would be worse as well.
