OK so if gill says he needs a miracle injury report wise there is only maybe 3 guys really only 1 that would justify that.

Buckshot agg or wells. And buckshot is a big leap ahead of those 2

Almost like they dont want to deflate the hype around the game by an injury.

“One more day. Hopefully we have a miracle or something that may happen,” Gill said. “Just trying to see what’s going to happen one more day and a decision will be made tomorrow. Don’t have anything for an update.

“We’re going to check it all out. We’ve all the way to Saturday technically at 6 o’clock, but I’m not going to wait to that time period. I want to wait as much time as I can to see what happens.”
The Thursday practice didn’t end until 6:45, about 30 minutes after its scheduled conclusion. Gill said he wanted to get his players more work in certain situations so they are ready for those possible scenarios Saturday.

Those two things on their own aren’t good but combined seem like pretty big red flags.

I'm sticking my head in the sand. Y'all can't make me not blindly optimistic for the first game.

ugg. Some days 2-10 seems like reality, others, 6-6 is within reach. Less than 48 hours y'all.

We know it’s not Calvert.

He said AGG was good to go. For all my issues with Gill, I don’t think the man would straight up lie to people.

My guess is it’s Probert and then we will have some other guys out as well. I’m thinking more cumulative than one big impact player.

Or it’s just Gill being Gill and he’s overhyping the kicker being hurt.

With a couple impact players buried on the depth chart, ie Tillmon and Rion Davis, I am hoping it is not a massive team suspension. or something.

If we are going to overthink the suspension possibility, first game of the year would be the time to punish players for anything they had done violating team rules since November. So maybe some of these guys wont play the first quarter or first game.

Hoping its just an injury Gill is waiting to see if it gets better.

I don’t think it’s suspension related. He’s been pretty straight forward with those things. It wouldn’t surprise me if some of those guys buried down the chart are hurt. That would make more sense than moving a starting safety to third string linebacker.

This time tomorrow I will be on the way to Lynchburg. Never thought this day would happen when I was at LU. I will never forget my first day seeing the campus for new student check in. I really questioned my decision. The campus was trash. It was like stepping back in time to the 70's. It ended up being one of the best decisions I have ever made. God used Liberty to change my life, so I will always be a Flame and a season ticket holder as long as I can afford to do so.

Ha! I was coming here to basically say this same thing. You beat me here and I didn't see it.

It doesn't give that number, but doing some basic math and an eyeball estimate on the the greyed out parts, it looks like this.

213 - 396 (750)
214 - 253 (750)
215 - 379 (750)

101 - 662 (832)
102 - 408 (672)
103 - 1 (672)

104 - 0 (672)
105 - 0 (672)
106 - 0 (672)

107 - 1 (672)
108 - 380 (672)
109 - 585 (832)

201 - 208 (306)
202 - 295 (459)
203 - 158 (326)

204 - 0 (326)
205 - 0 (326)
206 - 0 (326)

207 - 161 (326)
208 - 213 (459)
209 - 135 (306)

Total remaining - 4,235 (11,778)
Didn't do all the math, but we've made some headway. 214 is about sold out.

I bought three season tickets yesterday for my family. My wife doesn't not want to bring our five year and one year old children to the opener. If anyone needs two tickets let me know. The tickets are in section 213 row G.
