I don't know the specifics, but USC pays Dillman 400,000 per year and employs a barrage of PT/OT and trainers.

Broken arm or leg--they'd better be able to figure something out.

6' 1" is pretty tall for a CB. And what I mean is since he is taller he doesn't look as big as someone that is the same weight but shorter.

If he is to CB's what AJ is to WR, that is great.

Plus your big belly makes your arms look smaller by comparison.

Dowdle and Williams are going to make a great 1-2 RB combo, looking forward to watching them this fall.

Doctors told muschamp that king would be lifting weights again 2 weeks after his injury, so I don't know if he even had a cast but I'm not sure. I don't think the injury was very significant.

Yeah, it really depends on the fx location and type. From the limited reports they released, it sounds like it was a minor fracture and was stabilized with a plate, depending on which bone was actually fractured would tell us more about his ability to lift weights. Either way, he was getting top notch medical care and therapy so his recovery time for even slight fracture would be a lot lower than the average recovery time of a regular everyday person.

Serious question. Why does South Carolina wear their game jerseys in practice? Do you not have practice jerseys in the under armour deal or are those old jerseys from a previous year? Just wondering

We can't afford practice jerseys
