Then why would Whittingham play him when he has a healthy QB2?

Brandoblueblood Intervention Needed

That makes no sense. The debate was either a healthy Isaac Wilson or a healthy Rose. Rose gets injured so much a doctor is incredulous he can even walk...and Whittingham sticks with that guy and leaves healthy Isaac Wilson on the bench?

Yeah right.

Apparently their 3rd/4th string QB with a busted foot was a better option

BYU Fan

9:11am

He had a few good throws so they thought he was better

Because he's not healthy either. Is my guess.

That's trying to put lipstick on a pig. You'll see Saturday. He is fine.

2FarGone

9:22am

Exactly. If they were so close to even, rose can’t be better injured.

That situation alone should push Isaac to enter transfer portal.

Very responsible of KWhitt to drug him up and keep marching him out there.

To be fair, we did the same thing with Taysom. He tried to tough it out that

Did they replace the ortho covering the game that injected him and sent him back

This! And then Taysom had to have his midfoot joints fused the following week.

Is it possible to cause further damage?

Shoot em up and push him back out on the field. Not a great look for Whitt or the Utah program.

Meh. Taysom played through his too. Rose is a competitor. #respect

Taysom didn't try to play the second half against Nebraska with a Lisfranc. It's

He tried to play again in the second quarter after the injury.

Marvelous

The doctor at the game told Taysom that playing wouldn't make it any worse, so

We did the same thing with both Taysom and Riley Nelson...

cougarBee

9:13am

Taysom didn't play the 2nd half against Nebraska with that injury. We didn't do the same thing.

spugeddy24

9:16am

I'm pretty sure he played into the 3rd and possibly even briefly in the 4th.

byubyu

9:44am

Mangum came in with 12 minutes left in the 4th.

molodyets

9:58am

Wrong. Hill played almost a whole quarter before Mangum came in.

Virginia Ute

10:07am

There’s a reason they have medical staff on the sidelines. Keep kids from making dumb decisions with long term

WDaddy

9:27am

False narrative. Taysom or medical staff didn't even try to play 2nd half

osbooks

9:30am

Yes he did. Magnum didn't replace him until the 4th.

byubyu

9:44am

Yup, it wan't until BYU got the ball with about 12 minutes left in the 4th

Ungoy

Yep. Taysom played the first four series of the 2nd half.

I stand corrected. I just went back and watched snap to tackle for the game and

FWIW I didn't remember him playing in the 3rd either. I think he tore it doing that dumb stomping motion as he scored

Yeah if you celebrate a touchdown you deserve your season ending injury. What a fun take!

I didn’t want him to get a season ending injury. I wanted him to lose. I also

buckeyecougarguy

lol his attitude was the main reason why the first half went as well as it did. Strong disagree there.

Exactly. I wish I had seen more of that from our team.

I think his play definitely ignited the team. But a little more emotional

He got hurt at the end of the first half. Otherwise lol at the rest of your post.

You really don’t think your team and coach and AD got overly emotional?

Honestly, if the Doctor says playing won't make the injury worse, and player can stand the pain, let him play.
