I had a BIL that was not an MD Alum. And I couldn't stand him either

it could be a couple weeks more than just the first game
Interesting. And not the best of news since he was somewhat of a known in a secondary that lacks extensive experience.

I have no inside info , just many years of hearing news like this and realizing that there are no real pressing reasons for him to come back before he is 100% ready .
maybe he’s ready by week 2, but I would simply say there is a decent chance he’s not . not a lot of pressing need to risk him coming back “early”
Many of us can confirm that foot injuries don’t respond well to aggressive resumption of activities. Push it enough and you could lose a year.
Will the Toledo team be much better than the Wyoming team?
Yes. It's a G5 Champion with the 7th most returning production in the nation. Most of Toledos losses were from injured QB play in 2022. If Finn was healthy Toledo only loses to Ohio State and Buffalo last year. 6 turnovers up 3 TDs led to that downfall...Top 25D in the country with a bad SOS for what it's worth. The backend of the D has an AA and 3 likely draft picks.
Optimistic goal: Back for the Penn State game
Pessimistic goal: Out until mid-October
@Fighter of the Nightman, on the ticket website, when selecting your seats, there is a line that bisects rows 41 and 42. I don’t know for sure, but I always assumed that’s where the overhang is.

Josh McCray and Reggie Love in place to get snaps at running back for Illinois
Illinois will go with the committee approach to replace Chase Brown this season.
DT: Jer'Zhan Newton, Illinois
Anybody sleeping on Illinois' defense or Newton is not paying attention. Newton has gone from a three-star recruit in high school to one of college football's best interior defensive linemen. The 6-2, 295-pound Newton passed up the NFL to return for his fourth season, and Illinois' D should again be salty after leading the country a year ago in scoring defense (12.8 points per game). Not only is Newton a menace inside, but fellow defensive lineman Keith Randolph is also a future pro. The "Law Firm," as coach Bret Bielema calls them, combined for 27 tackles for loss last season.ESPN all American team
What do people think about the four game limit for redshirting. How do you play that with a guy like Feagin?Josh McCray and Reggie Love in place to get snaps at running back for Illinois

Play him early to see what he's got? Play him once, see what he's up against, and hold off for a different time? Hold him back in case of injury?
Looking backward has there been a general approach to this?
