he got hit by 3...the last being the 6'9 290 DE that was mouthing off about respect. led with his forearm after Knight was already on the ground..and followed through to his head....just watch it. totally intentional

How do you know if you get there, if you don't know where you are going?..oh and I had 1,713 post on the "other board"..I hate being a rookie again!
Y'all are just being Pokish. <letting it go now. Maybe.>
I believe he's actually 6'8" and 280. And yes he did lead with his forearm. Dirty hit, but I can see why it wasn't flagged as a late hit. Not sure if the BXII office can discipline like the NFL can. I suppose Briles can. Stoops can certainly bring it to the attention of the BXII.
Knight's injury is on Bob Stoops. Knight should not have been in at that point in the game given the score. That's just Bob Stoops being a selfish and stubborn jerk once more, but this time, it bit him on the backside.
Knight's injury is on Knight. The kid is fragile and we need to learn how to play without him.

Really? Would you say the same thing about Sam Bradford? He had a ton of injuries during his OU career.
My 12 year old thinks he wants to play football next year. I have heard the junior high and high school coaches here put pressure on kids to play with injuries. That type of attitude is detrimental to the program and the game in the long run.

Sam had one injury at OU after playing for 2 years. He then re-aggravated it against Texas. Knight was injured twice last year, briefly injured earlier this year, and now injured again apparently. He is slightly built and fragile. I suspect that is one reason why Stoops didn't run him for so long.
Would be difficult to not make my next play from scrimmage a double chop block on Oakman (take out both his knees while he is engaged high) and then pile on the dirty mother scratcher. At least that is how we handled those types of players when we played mud lot football when I was a kid.

Nevrmind. The TT game was mentioned in the previous post.

Sounds like TK is being held out of practice today (Monday), and it'll be a 'wait and see' situation. Stoops reaffirmed that all test results were negative and that the injury wasn't related to TK's head. He wouldn't elaborate, but I think it's safe to assume it's a shoulder issue. Nonetheless, Stoops said he was just "very sore". If TK can't go, Thomas is the guy and Blake will get some extra work at QB this week and will be the back-up for Thomas.
On a semi-related note, Tyrus Thompson said that "Cody is going to be really good" and he mentioned that things will be interesting next year (as it relates to Thomas or Knight at QB). I always think the players comments are far more informative than what the coaches say, and Thompson seemed pretty excited about Thomas' ability.
Just getting a week of practice with the first team will be a great experience for Thomas. I'm not expecting miracles from a guy with so little experience, but it will be interesting to see what he can do if he gets the call. It will also be interesting to see how the team plays and if they respond to playing for pride (which is important, IMO).
So, now it's a "Good Thing" that Trevor got the illegal, damaging hits?
Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.
You serious, Clark?
Trevor, shoulder, nothing more. I know the stretcher freaked people out but it was completely precautionary
Who said that? If I were HBC, I would start Thomas next week regardless because TK has to be accountable for throwing pick-6s (minus 1 yard). But Bob doesn't seem to that at the QB position, but being cautious with TK gives him the perfect excuse without saying he is benching TK. Competition has a very focusing effect.
