WBIR Reporting Tillman is out Saturday

[DaddyChad]

We need Tillman bad.

Really would like to have him but the offense hasn’t really missed a beat. Bru, Hyatt, Keaton are damn good group.

 

[sami]

I'd much rather he's out until 100% ready to go. We have the horses to get the job done.

I prefer 4WR sets. That would be ridiculous

 

[ENGRVOL]

Hope he can continue to heal and be ready for Kentucky in 2 weeks. Rather him be close to 100% than him coming back too soon and hurt himself more causing him to lose money in the draft.

 

[HalfullVol]

I’m beginning to wonder if Tillman will be back at all this season.

Vols in playoffs will have CedTillman sprinting back to the team ASAP!

 

[joevols89]

I think we need Tillman if Bryce Young is healthy and ready to go. But I like our chances with or without him with their backup.

 

[Eastknox865]

Fake news - I was told straight up by a poster on here with insider info that he would play against Bama. I believe the post said it wasn't his opinion, it was a fact.

That poster was me and who I was told that from I stand by. But I've been wrong before but in this case I hope I'm not

 

[OH-Vol]

This is crazy to me…It would take more a lot more than an Ankle sprain to keep me out of the biggest game of my college career. Especially after 4 years of losing… I guess the promise of NFL $$$?

We can add Squirrel to the mix.

 

[Volfan1000]

As he should not , 100% keyton is better than 85-90% Tillman. Let’s go. See ya in Kentucky CT ready to ball out rest of season

Hooker will have confidence in McCoy and Keyton and Fant to continue to make plays if Tillman is indeed out for the Alabama game.

You ever recovered from a surgical procedure on a high ankle sprain? I'd be willing to bet you've never even had a high ankle sprain. Otherwise you would know that what you are saying is laughable.

The surgical procedure was supposed to fast track a recovery from a HIgh Ankle Sprain. Players between 1970 - 2010 didn’t miss 4-6 weeks with ankle injuries

Players between 1970-2010 were also very dumb to be playing when not 100%, especially while in college. We’ve learned a lot since then, and for the betterment of the players and their long term future (which is what should be most important)

I don't have a dog in this fight, but pretty sure the recovery/therapy/attention CT is receiving is 24/7, not like any of us would get. I would assume the time for recovery is accelerated in his case. GBO!

 

[Volwonder1]

I’d love to have CT there and 100% but the rest of the unit is doing fine shouldering the load. Let’s go Jalin, Bru, and Keyton.

One of the dirtiest teams I have witnessed. Makes me wonder if the dumbos and Saban made a call to Akron pregame

 

[VOLtaism]

Need him 100% for UGA. Good move.

 

[Volnut]

I don't think anyone knows if he's playing Saturday. It's a game time decision

^^^^^
This. I can't see why Heupel would divulge mid week to Alabama that he won't play.

 

[Odiodin]

Our local media is trash. Should boycott until they no longer exist.

 

[orange_glory]

Put CT out there as a decoy. Let him run a few routes but don't throw to him so he doesn't get hammered. Let him ease back in and give Saban something to think about.

When you have the production from WRs like they're getting, why would you handicap yourself and limit your QBs options?

Would be like 4 Cruise missiles coming at you.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Not too sure about this one. It’s not like they got that from Heupel.

Doesn't bother me really. Our WR core has stepped up since Tillman went out. We will be fine there.

 

[WoodsmanVol]

It's OK. We have a secret weapon I mentioned late in the off season. Just wait until the same.

 

[therealitytheory]

The thread title reads "wbir is reporting Tillman is out saturday".

That is unequivocally 100% false. The story only goes as far to say he is unlikely to play - with opinions given on that viewpoint.

You can’t be serious. You’ve never had a grade 3 high ankle sprain, and I’m guessing you don’t know what that means. But you completely tear the ligament in that senario. Someone stepped on my foot while I was going up for a layup in basketball. I head the pop. Thought my ankle was broke. Nope it was “only” a 3rd degree high ankle sprain. Had surgery. Couldn’t walk on it for months. My ankle Was swollen for 2 years. Still not 100% 7 years later.
