Billy Embody said that Minor is hurt-don't know that for a fact but he hasn't made Participation Chart in last 3 games

RC Cox played well in place of Mitchell.

He busted coverage a couple of times but it was a good learning experience and at least when he made a mistake it was full speed.

Ok, Cox filled in at the Star.Hollie has been a bust his entire career here...I had hopes for Minor emerging this year to fulfill his talent level. If he's hurt hope he gets better and comes back and starts to play up to his potential level.

I saw him on the last defensive series against USF. He was suited up for Tulsa, but I didn't see him on the field. Hollie didn't play the last two games. Two major bust thus far.

Not sure if they are injured or not, but I wonder if the coaching staff is just sending them a message that if they want to play in the games they need to bust their [deleted] in practice on every play. The talent is there, the effort isn't on a consistent basis.

We continue to roll out LBs at Star. It is going to be interesting to see if those guys all line up at WILL next season or if there is going to be a different look to the 4-2-5 from TCU. Not sure if we have the stud WILL and MLB coming in that will be able to allow for a secondary-focused STAR.
