can Minor stay healthy this year?
Obviously, no one knows if he will or won't be healthy. But it's really bothering me the more I think about it; he's an amazing talent, and when he kicks in the burners he has some great speed (when he has been at 100%). We really need his leadership this year as well.
Let's just hope he returns to practice soon. (from what I've read he sat out today due to a very bad headache)

more so than Minor, I hope that Carlos Brown can stay healthy and have a great year. I want to see both of them do enough damage so they can end up like Felix Jones and Darren McFadden in the NFL.

If they can have a Jones-McFadden type of year then it wont matter who is our QB this year. As long as he can hand off the ball when they are not being the QB themselves. That would be wet spot on the sheet in the morning material.

it has definitely been frustrating to watch both of them deal with seemingly nonsense injuries that have put them on the shelf...they both have talent to spare.

The offensive line has a year under their belt, the defense will have to play honest because Tate will be able to execute it. Everybody gets dinged up, and I'm sure Brandon will have his hurts, but I don't anticipate him missing major time.
Carlos is the one I have concerns about, he's the one who is consistently missing game time, but he looks bigger, more durable, hopefully it's true.

He'll be fine.

Yes, he can stay healthy, unless he gets injured or sick, in which case, no.

said he was in a semi-serious car accident. Cant this guy catch a break with injury karma? Lets just keep him in a bubble at all times other than game day.

IMO, Minor and Brown both richly deserve to show what they can do with an entire season of health. It would be nice if both could leave UM with a good feeling about their "careers" there. And, of course, it would be great for fans (especially this one) to see them help bring UM back to their former level a little quicker than the national pundits seem to think possible.

It really is a shame that Minor has had the injury bug his whole career it seems. Hopefully this year he stays healthy the whole season and ends his career the right way.

I hope that everyone stays healthy this season but it is football and we will have a few go down. As for minor I think he can have a great year but if he does, god forbid, get hurt there is a few capable guys behind him. We could absord that. DB's start going down and we are in walk on type trouble.
