Submitted by Indonacious on

Not sure what it means overall (given all the misinformation that will happen this week) but good to hear in my opinion.

Been saying this all week...it's the only thing that makes sense. You're not going to have Speight go 100% because you don't want him taking hits that go along with some of our play calls. Give JO'K the snaps with a higher risk of hits to the QB that we still have to run because they're part of our offense and we're not going to shrink the playbook for an injury. And Peppers was always going to get some snaps. 70/20/10 maybe? Whatever, Harbaugh will figure it out and give everyone a chance to excel in his role. Just the fact that Speight can give anything is a HUGE boost. Let's go!

Oh gawd, the kid was warming up pregame throwing the ball around. A bruise is a bruise. Bone or flesh. Get it done Wilton. Damnit! Henne played like a million bucks only a month later against Florida. Couldn't have been hurt too damn bad that year.

Actually heard today on the radio (1050) that it is a small fracture in the collarbone, but at the proximal part or close to the sternum. If that's the case then his shoulder should be pretty stable still and it's all about being able to play through pain. Again, just what I heard and am just relaying that.

Man, you seem to be all over the place here.  Yesterday you were downplaying his chances.  Did he improve a bunch healthwise in 24 hours or are there conflicting reports out there?

He received more reps in one than the other. It comes down to how sore, how tight, how painful is it "day-to-day?" There is absolutely nothing definitive yet. If you would have asked me last Saturday I would have said less than 25% chance he played this week. You don't give away or share significant practice reps if you do not intend to have a player participate.

Not sure if you are just being sarcastic. Idk. But I will explain what I remember. There was guy or a girl playing counterstrike online said something he was sure of that did not turn out to be true. I think it was the coaching search. I forget. Since then, the board has looked on any inside info as verified by counterstrike guy or a girl to express the sarcasm. Since you have been legit, and I appreciate all the info you share by the way, you are being nominated as the opposite of non-counterstrike person.

Counter strike guy was playing the game online against a dude who said he was a classmate of Peppers during his recruiting cycle. 'classmate identified counterstrike guy by his username that said something Michigan and said hey one of my friends is going to Michigan to play football. When pressed on his name 'classmate' says Jabrill Peppers. This deemed recruiting sites pointless and everyone just played Xbox for their substantiated, verified and unbiased recruiting news.
