Thank the gods that McCree only dislocated his thumb and could be back for Indiana (if no ligament damage). Even then, he could wear a cast on his hand. I'm not sure Faasolo has the agility to be a LT and I watched Tafai and he looked better (Iowa may have had their back-ups in though). I'm guessing that Elijah Jackett needs another year in the weight room because he is listed at only 271 lbs and 6'7".
Bryce Butler didn't play and I thought he was healthy. With Valdez and Bandes running out of eligibility, I'm hoping Logan Sagapoulo can get a 6th year because a massive body like his would help bridge the gap to guys like Davis and Khan.
One thing that was Chinteresting is that Fisch alluded to Coleman being banged up. That would make more sense as to why he only got 1 or 2 carries in the 2nd half (and before the game mostly got out of hand):

we knew Coleman was banged up going into the game.
Ah I didn't know that. I thought was good to go.
I should love Coleman but I find myself being annoyed by him. Feels like a prima Donna to me. Next
aside from his excessive necklaces…
His grill is lit.
He's the best player on the team. Maybe Boston fans could persuade me. Need to get him going.
McCree getting hurt felt like the apocalypse. Faosolo reminds me of Buelow under Lake/Donovan where he was like too big to move. Jackett legit looks like Kevin Durant skinny. Wonder if he ever even plays.
I believe Butler had a baby or infant son die back in Canada before the Apple Cup and he hasn't been back since so not sure what his situation is. I know Valdez was banged up and I wouldn't be surprised if the DL overall was worn out after doing Herculean work against Michigan to win that game then came into an awful matchup on the road. I was truly shocked when it was clear in the 2nd quarter Bandes and Sago were gonna have to take like every rep for the rest of the game. Tunuufi seems MIA against Iowa.
No idea what the fuck the Coleman situation is. He doesn't look banged up. I know guys who run like that can break down in the way I thought Bucky Irving did last year but Coleman has a massive frame so one would think he can take punishment better.
Nuff said on that
