What are the chances we see Darius Taylor play on Saturday vs Cal - your guess

[Schnauzer]

I don't see it happening, but I'm curious what others would predict in terms of Taylor playing this week.

fourth choice SHOULD be 36%-50%. It won't let me fix it.

I highly doubt we see Taylor playing. Worst thing would be to bring him back too early.

 

[A_Slab_of_Bacon]

I think it's a low %.

It sounds like a nagging injury and he got hurt a couple plays into the game last weekend.

What would be a safe number of plays this weekend? Not many I imagine.

Fleck saying a player is ok, means the player has a pulse and is breathing. Doesn't account for torn ligaments, broken bones, pulled hamstrings.

I voted not sure because I could see DT lobbying to play if healthy enough.

For me, if Taylor needs restrictions then he shouldn't play at all and give his hammy a better chance at recovery before the B1G season begins. We shall see.

I voted 65%-89% because I will be there.

 

[salzie]

give him three weeks off

Science!

I think it's close to 0%. Non-conference game, before a bye and just a week after tweaking the hamstring means to me that he ain't playing. Been watching Fleck coach this team for a long time now. When he says "we got good news" that just means that it's better than it could have been, not that's it's the best possible outcome.

Doubt it. And I think we may lose without him. He’s the best player on the team IMO…

He is really good but I don't think the dropoff is that big for the backups. Gophers by 10+.

Plus his speed is his asset. If he's 80%, he's not really an upgrade over the back-ups.

We’re going to find how much playable depth we have at RB …

It looks deep to me.

Offensive line will step up to help the backup running backs.
