If Sibley is out we need a big back that can run

Any thought given that if we had a bigger back that could carry the ball as well as pass pro we could better our chances in short yardage and red zone situations. AJ Davis seems to pitter pat from time to time instead of hitting hole and getting some YAC.

Sibley is done, unfortunately.

Speedy recovery !
 
Daniel Carter, a true freshman RB, is listed as 5’10” and 220 pounds. Same weight as Sibley.

Maybe we see him some — don’t remember seeing him so far...

Go Pitt.
 
Based on the way he was tackled and the amount of time it took him to get off the field, things look bad for sibley

So how does the 4 game rule work? Can someone still play 4 games this late into the season and still get a redshirt?

Play in 4 games or less at any point in the season and you can RS if still available. Remember the hullabaloo last season over whether Vlique Carter should continue to play, and which games, after the Duke game?

Had his leg rolled up on at the end of a run in the second half. He was down for a few minutes and put no weight on it when he went off. Possible ligament damage or a break.

i was about 10 rows back on the sideline and he looked to be in more than a little bit of pain. Felt bad for the kid, as he was struggling to look around a tarped object to watch the remainder of the field goal ending drive that put Pitt up temporarily. Couldn't tell if he was more upset by his injury or that he wasnt on the field trying to bang in it from the 5.

These could be 4 of the most important games for PITT in a long time.
If they lose them all its big trouble in three river city 5-7.
If they win them all its a big boost 9-3.

The run game is the weak link now so we don't need a weaker weak link.

Remember the 4th and 1ones we cant get or the first down we needed in the Miami game that we couldn't run for on and on.

We should play anyone who can run the ball even if its a kid from down the street who stole a practice ball and noone on the team can catch him. Get him in the U, sign him up.

If I'm the HC its all hands on deck.
