Speight may return before season end

Wilton progressing in his rehab is good news but somehow this has become Yet Another Shit On Every QB Thread.

I hear D-Caf is a poor Battleship player!

This should at least give us the option to change things if the offense sputters. This helps us.

Say what you want about Speight, but he is one tough sob

If Speight is 100% I would love to see him back and starting against OSU. I know he was struggling before the injury, but he's the best QB on the team right now.

Hopefully he gets back to play before the end of the season!  I can see him as a shot in the arm from WI onward.

means he's getting healthy and means we should probably have him for 2018. Despite his poor play, I think it's apparent why he's the starter at this point.

Admire Speight for his toughness, but if he's starting next year, program is in for another "retooling" year.  If he's back, hopefully it's as a vet mentor to next year's starter, Dylan McCaffery. Game day says it all, which young QB is next to Harbaugh?  Have good feeling Peters is someplace else next year, can't beat out O'Korn, isn't going to beat out McCaffery.  

QB recruiting can be like kissing frogs, have to kiss a few before you find a prince!  

I hope the kid recovers but with that kind of injury i would be surprised if he takes another snap as a football player period.

I hope he can return when healthy, but I don't want him to risk his health and future getting sacked 10 times by, say, OSU. Still, happy his recovery is going along such that this is an option. means he's healing well without complications.

I dont to bring him back if its not safe for him.  Its pretty dangerous to throw him out there again with that line in front of him...

Wilton should think twice about his future. He has two screws in his right shoulder, a mangled left shoulder and now 3 broken vertebrae in his neck. Clearly, he is vulnerable to injury. I like his grit and willingness to take one for the team, but he has no real prospects for NFL future so hit the books and graduate. Personally, we need some fresh young guys to give a spark to this offense. I am hoping the coaches work Peters into the rotation over the next 3 games and see if he can provide that needed spark. He has the best raw talent and was rated 4* and Elite11 ... he must be better ultimately than Speight or O'Korn. Maybe now is the time to test that theory and get him ready for 2018.

Speight starts every game he is capable of playing in, from here til he graduates. Raback it.

Had excellent discussion on this topic, today's show.  

He should have played JOK a lot more last year (as a sub) so that he'd be better prepared to play this year, in the event of an injury to Speight.  There were lots of opportunities to do so (big leads). JH didn't do that and here we are.

I hope JH learned his lesson and will play Brandon Peters this year, so he's experienced and better prepared to play next year. 

If McCaffrey would just start taking those Mexican supplements I keep sending him, we'd be all set!

When Speight gets good protection he is one of the best quarterbacks in the country. The offensive line needs to step up and protect him. Watching him play after an injury like that could give them the guts to protect our leader.

Please, no...someone at UM should not allow this to happen. Broken vertebrae are no joke and not worth the risk. Just stop this shit already and keep him away from the field.
