Considering he was standing on the sidelines with his helmet on at one point (pretty sure they showed him on TV) I don't think it is that big of a deal.
We don't even know what the injury is and people have him out for weeks. I mean sure it is expected, but some people look for every sign that...
Just a couple of weeks ago someone in the other thread was just so dang sure Michigan was getting hammered...mocked me for saying it would be a slap on the wrist. Hmmm...
Max has as many starts as the starter...no chance he is the backup barring injuries. Howell may suck but he has experience if JJ goes down or struggles a bit.
I don't think he will ever be long term successful at USC. Yes he won the Pac-12 his first year but his second they went 8-5 and I just dont see things working out in the Big Ten. Travel alone is going to screw him.
