Thanks Taft!

That will be the narrative, of course.

Courageous. My ass. Rising is courageous. Dudes been hurt since, what, mid season? Got decapitated. Missed one play. I hate Ute but come on. That kid has balls. Williams looked soft when it became apparent Ute didn’t go to Vegas to crow their ass.

I’ve “popped” both hamstrings, once playing rugby and once playing soccer. I’m not a D1 level athlete but I don’t see any way Williams popped a hammy and continued playing.

And if he truly popped it, Riley is a weak motherfucker as a coach to keep him out there.

If anything he stained his hammy. We have seen plenty of players pop a hammy and the gesture is always the same. Never seen a hammy go doing a hook slide

I was going to say the same. If by “popped” he means “pull,” or “torn,” no way. Strained? More likely. If pulled/torn, he’s on the sideline. If ripped away from the femur, which happened to a colleague water skiing, it’s ambulance time.

Something happened.

I thought he tweaked his ankle but maybe it was a strain. I have "popped" my hamstring before and could barely stand afterwards, let alone jog.

And whatever happened to CW didn't affect USC in terms of being out-coached and out-hit.

Fucking this. I popped a hamstring and it was like getting shot in the back of my leg. The whole thing bunched up and I was laid up for a couple days before I could limp around and go to work. He wouldn’t have been able to walk off the field if he’d “popped” that thing. Bunch of LA bullshit.

Williams literally quit and left the last place which was a handoff lol
