Hows Colby Erskin coming along?

[theman123]

Anyone know how his knee is feeling and how fast he is running?

[BiggTipp]

I think it was in Gregs Blog recently that he is working in drills and running but I couldnt find any info in the Blog

[Greg Auman]

I've yet to see him working with receivers. Just taking it slow, working during practice with a trainer -- running with teammates, working on lateral movements, that kind of thing. They're just being careful with him to make sure there aren't any setbacks ...

I asked him at Fan Fest and he said he wasn't 100 percent, but he was feeling good.

[E.T.]

He told me at Fan Fest that he was hoping for a Kansas return.

Yeah, same here. He told me he was looking at the 3rd game of the season, which is Kansas

Hey it's a good target.  There's no reason he should play before that unless he wants to pad his stats, but the risk/reward ratio is too great.

Plus looking back on the season at the end no one will remember the nobodies we played in the first two games.

i admire and respect his drive, but is the biggest OOC game of the season really the place we want to use a guy who hasn't been healthy in over a year?  besides which, isn't Colby a RS sophomore who's never played an actual game for USF?

nothing against Erskin, but Kansas would be the last game on our schedule [outside of WVU] that i'd want to experiment with...

maybe FIU would be a better test for the guy.

It's not like he's never played football or practiced with the team before.  A RS sophomore is going into his third season.  If he isn't used to the team/playbook by now he shouldn't be on the team at all.  I'm sure he'll gel into the rotation nicely if he's athletically prepared to return.

what?!?! were you not around in '06? did you just jump on the bandwagon last year? he made some nice catches in '06. the one i remember the most was a diving catch against UCF. Colby came off that season with an awesome spring...catching everything thrown to him. very unfortunate what happened to him and i hope to see him back soon.
