I just wonder if the concussion issue is continuing ... I expect Mike knows more.

Well when it was first announced, I jumped to that conclusion, who knows?

I settled on it being a continuation of last summer when reportedly his stated goal was 'to find himself.'

I do not know the status of his medical situation.

Nah, it's much more fun to call someone an f'ing idiot and tell them they don't know dlck about what they're saying.. Being a fan? What's that...

Also, I'd love to know the amount of times we've said "highly rated JUCO" on this board when discussing that player not working out. Across all sports. I'd ventured to say 40% of our "highly rated JUCOs" ever pan out here. Kind of beside the point, but it occurred to me while I was reading.

I dont venture to other teams forums but I would imagine it's the same everywhere. It's just the nature of fandom. We are usually eternal optimists because it's no fun to be anything else. I mean since I was a little kid the mantra after the Saints season was "Next year!" As I've gotten older, the highs and lows of sports have leveled out some but I'm still expecting football to get to a bowl game, basketball to make the Dance and baseball to go to Omaha, in my heart.

Justin Miller is heading to Detroit Mercy. Good luck!

Detroit Mercy is a D1 university in the Horizon League. I wonder if this means he is going to get that waiver our coaches were working with him on. Said waiver would allow him to play immediately and not have to sit out. The Horizon League is one of the conferences the SBC was supposed to have an "alliance" with. I have not heard anymore about this actually occurring in recent weeks.

Mike Davis, the former Indiana coach, most recently at Texas Southern, is the Detroit Mercy coach.

Davis was at Texas Southern when they came to town Miller’s Freshman year. I believe that was the last game in Blackham before the dome reopened.
