I am going to try my best to be hopeful/optimistic and say he tears off a couple of 60+ yard TDs and gets 200 in the first half and can rest after halftime But more realistically, I hope he is healthy enough to play and can get in for a light load and (most importantly) WCU wins the game.

I think he should play a few series just to get the rust off and that is the most we see from him

To be honest if he is healthy enough to play I hope Coach Bell will limit his playing time.....Maybe get 10-12 runs to help get his legs back and have some contact to feel the game again....If we are in complete control of the game don't take the chance hurting him again and if the playoffs are in our future...Wow having him healthy for them will be big.....Maybe a game changer....

I liked what coach had to say today and am especially happy to hear that he is going to go after defensive players to strengthen that unit. It sounds really promising from the standpoint of returning players and the depth he is building. If we can get everybody healthy and avoid all these injuries, next year could be the special one we had hoped for this year.

Agree. Program is in great hands. When healthy, we had the best team in the SoCon this year. Glad Coach is going to the portal to shore up the defense. Coach Bell is correct when he says that Brody is a competitor. We are fortunate to hqve such a great backup QB. Considering he did not get that many reps this year, he came in and gave us a chance to win. Being the backup QB is hard. This was great experience for him. Hopefully we do not lose a lot to the portal. Next years schedule will get us ready for the playoffs. I think NC State and Montana will be our hardest games. We will beat Campbell next year and Furman will be a total rebuild. Wofford will be better but we have them at home. Mercer and Chatt will not be as good next year. We have VMI at home and with most players coming back and a better defense, we should be even better. Also, in my opinion, as fans, we should not attack our players on this forum or any time as they are college kids doing the best they can to represent our school. They put in a lot of extra time to be good college students and represent our school and they do not deserve being attacked with hurtful inaccurate words.

Agreed. Great last coaches' show of the season. I'm very happy for the coach and team and am glad we have Bell and staff in place. This is just a completely different feel and mindset than that of any other coaching staff I've ever witnessed since '92.

Separated shoulder for cole. Coach said 4-6 weeks in there.

I finally watched the show this morning and I think Coach Bell is upset but excited of what we could have been but also the failure is going to push him into next year. Bell I hope retires here because I think he will get some SoCon titles before he leaves here or retires.
