August 19th, 2014 at 1:21 PM ^
All of Ohio right now...

Braxton: "Coach.. I'm not feeling great, think I need to sit out."
Urbz: "Wait... I have an idea. I saw it in a movie.. errr a dream I had once."
August 19th, 2014 at 4:41 PM ^
I had this same thought in my head last night lol
August 19th, 2014 at 1:22 PM ^
OMG I'VE NEVER HEARD ABOUT THIS
August 19th, 2014 at 2:40 PM ^
As the first thread was based on a tweet, but now there is confirmation literally everywhere (except perhaps among those among the OSU faithful who may not yet know, so the one dude), we'll let this thread serve as the primary outlet for news on Braxton Miller's injury. It's a fuzzy line on the blog really, but it is big news and probably wasn't going to ever be contained in a single thread. This thread, however, shall stand as the last one for now to ensure there is room for other news.

The 1:02 pm ET tweet from the article, lest people see the headline and proclaim "OLD NEWS!!1!"
Ohio State QB Braxton Miller is out for the season, a source told @ESPN

Gil Brandt had and was posted in another thread. It's no more official than the Gil Brandt tweet.

We know....

He seems awfully proud of a loaner car.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:23 PM ^
Officially? The first word of the link is "Report:"
August 19th, 2014 at 1:24 PM ^
As ESPN and Eleven Warriors have cred, it still should say "Reportedly" and not officially.

The SI Jinx - it really works
August 19th, 2014 at 3:30 PM ^
Yeah, he was on the cover the week before they lost the B10 title game, too.
Can we get Dantonio and Narduzzi on that cover asap?
August 19th, 2014 at 4:31 PM ^
I'm encouraged for Michigan's chances this season. And I'm pleased that OSU may have a down year.
But I feel really bad for Braxton. That truly sucks. Hope he makes a full recovery.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:23 PM ^
They should stop worrying about B1G play and....
August 19th, 2014 at 2:15 PM ^
As someone who lives near Annapolis (and thus root for the Middies every chance I can get), the Goat should indeed be feared. Coach Niumatalolo has been on a tear since he took over; 4 Commander-In-Chief trophies, 5 bowls (two wins), 2 leprechaun scalps (Haha!), including at ND for the first time in a billion years.
And oh yes, extending the Navy winning streak against Army to 12 games.
August 19th, 2014 at 8:50 PM ^
Sadly, they are probably still overmatched at 20 or so of the 22 positions.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:24 PM ^
I realize this is probably happening, but it isn't "official" until OSU releases a statement. People keep saying "official", when it really isn't. I know I'm splitting hairs here, but still. You may want to edit the title.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:27 PM ^
...do you mean that literally?
August 19th, 2014 at 1:31 PM ^
Yes?
August 19th, 2014 at 1:31 PM ^
...I think you're actually right.

yes, he prefers to distribute the ball or so they say.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:33 PM ^
and the Browns will send Johnny Football to the "minors" for some seasoning

It took 14 posts on 11W before a non mod wished Braxton well and a speedy recovery.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:29 PM ^
site - ever - what is the general douchebaggery going on over there?
August 19th, 2014 at 1:35 PM ^
I was only on there for about 30 seconds. A lot of next man up type stuff. That was the first and probably last time I'll venture on over there.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:26 PM ^
Did you hear that Braxton Miller, the starting quarterback for Ohio State University's football team, hurt his shoulder and might be out for the season? This seems like it could have an effect on our football team here at the University of Michigan. Does anyone want to speculate about it on this site with me?
August 19th, 2014 at 1:27 PM ^
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
August 19th, 2014 at 1:35 PM ^
LOL, nice
August 19th, 2014 at 1:27 PM ^
This actually maybe puts more pressure on UM to win this season because what would it be like if we didn't........?
August 19th, 2014 at 1:27 PM ^
4 OL, Hyde, Miller...RS FR QB will be relying on a lot of unproven dudes...GMatt will need to unleash the hounds.

Quote of the day from r/cfb:
(OSU fan) Still nothing from Eleven Warriors...
(Michigan fan) They are busy renaming it Ten Warriors.

Given the state of the Fort and the number of times Hoke says someone has a boo-boo, can we really criticize Meyer for being less than forthcoming on the injury status of his starting QB during the offseason?
August 19th, 2014 at 1:54 PM ^
August 19th, 2014 at 3:17 PM ^
It seemed to me that the op was criticizing Meyer with his comment about Meyer lying for months. Maybe I'm overanalyzing that sentence, though.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:30 PM ^
The site won't load. Geeee, I wonder why.
ERROR 522
August 19th, 2014 at 1:30 PM ^
it's only requiring final certification from that official source. Look, if there was better news, it would have been made public this morning. When that didn't happen, you knew it was season-ending and who knows, potentially worse. The fan base was already bracing for the worse. But even the blog knew that the staff was hiding the real deal information on Miller's status and actual condition.
I mean this was insinuated in every account about Miller's health in that blog. So Meyer is going to have to fess up for that at some point because questions are going to be raised about it.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:30 PM ^
...says he's back for The Game.
August 19th, 2014 at 1:36 PM ^
I thought about that yesterday and it would not surprise me one bit.
