Around SBN: Steve McNair Dead - Former NFL QB Shot and Killed


JONATHAN CROMPTON TO HAVE SURGERY ON THROWING ELBOW

I sure don't like the sound of this:

Tennessee junior quarterback Jonathan Crompton is scheduled to undergo surgery on his right, throwing elbow shortly after spring practice concludes.

The procedure is to remove a loose particle and has been deemed minor by doctors.

The recovery time for such a surgery is three to six weeks, meaning Crompton should return to full participation by early June when UT begins its summer workouts.

Okay, so it's "minor," but missed time is missed time. Does this turn up the heat on a potential QB controversy brew cycle?

Coleman
From the sound of the stats I have read on here, looks like BJ Coleman is the leader.

Off topic, but fun game!

It's a simulation fantasy football game where you create a player, sign a contract, and play for a team. Really addictive, fun, and, best of all, free!

Only if he fails in the spring game.
It would appear he's the starter until someone takes the job from him. If he performs well enough during the spring game, he'll continue to be the starter regardless.

Um...
Does Jim Bob have any eligibility left?
Maybe Coach Clawson just hasn't learned how to Work Like Heck yet.
