Sorry I misspoke, we did not have sewn on numbers under the Stokley era, or the game jersey I was issued from Big Lynn was a fake. Which I finsd hard to believe.

_ Don't forget LB Fred Davis was kicked off the team over the summer, he may have been our starting MLB. _

You are absolutely correct. I was actually thinking that he would take over for Burkhalter. Then Brooks emerged. Either way, we had a lot of depth until the carnage.

_ Explain to me how the OU linebacker can get a medical hardship. He played in 6 games. _

There is no way he could have possibly been granted that already??

_ So i gather everyone's gut feeling is that Dez starts? I hear "sprained knee" and think that at least puts him at limited playing time this weekend.

Anybody venture to compare Brad and Desormeaux? How big of a drop off are we gonna get here? Also, in ya'lls opinion, is the bigger concern Dez being injured, or our LB's being injured/kicked off team?

IMO, I'm more worried about Desormeaux being out because it's not like our defense was ever great even with those LB's, whereas there's no doubt that the Dez-Fenroy-Chery combo is truly exceptional. _

Nothing against Brad but they, at this point in time, don't compare too well. Des is a senior and has had more than a year to run this offense on his own. You saw how big of a transition it was for him last year. McGuire does have a better arm but to me, it is impossible to tell whether he is any more accurate than Des AT THIS TIME. In 3 years, I truly believe he will be a much more accomplished passer assuming he is starting ahead of Gautier which I'm not sure he will do.

He may be a good leader but he's not Des. He is still young and had trouble wrangling the backup job from Masson until the end. I do believe he can lead some drives but I'm uncertain as far as a game is concerned. We need to reevaluate our expectations due to injury and understand what this team faces.

_ Then I'll retalliate with a series of chops to the chest Nature Boy style. _

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

in 99, the #'s were screened on. 00-03 they were sewn on at least. After that a new style came out and they were screened at least for a couple of years

I agree. Des makes this offense go. McGuire may have some skills and may be great but we know what Des can do. Much the same if Fenroy was out and we had to go with Sails at RB.

The starting middle linebacker from OU is applying for the medical hardship!!! Someone on this website stated that if you play more than 30% of the games then you can't get a medical hardship/redshirt. So my question is why is the OU linebacker applying since he played in 6 games. Why can't Fleming apply?

[snote]

. I also think Bell's Sporting Goods on Johnston St. has them too.

I bought an authentic jersey from Bells, it doesn't have the sewn on numbers but it's about the closest i've seen to the on field jerseys. they have fenroy and you could probably get the name put on the back at bells also.

First of all, you can apply all day long. There is nothing stopping someone from doing so. However, my question lies into what is the difference between a medical hardship and a medical redshirt if any? It was reported that the OU linebacker applied for the hardship.
