Per TOS there is an increasing probability that Hooker is available Saturday
He has a 'significant' knee bruise

If I was a betting man I believe Cade doesn't play and Cooper only plays if he is required due to his ankle injury
It is also my view that Evans doesn't play as well (part of me agrees with that and part hopes I'm wrong - I'd prefer him full speed in Lexington)
There may be other good news on the OL for the November run as well

Hope he plays Saturday. He's the difference between scoring some on them or not.

If Hendo, Evans and Mays were 100% healthy, I'd like our chances of being competitive. Not winning...but not getting blown off the field as we've been apt to do the last several times we've faced bammer.

Yes.  Will be interesting to see how it turns out, and who plays.

I really hope Hook doesn't play.  He needs a chance to heal up 100% and Milton could use one more chance to learn how to play. 

Let's face the facts, we aren't gonna win this one, regardless.

I agree in theory. But if he (or anyone else) is healthy you have to play him, if only to keep faith with your players. Sitting your best guys because you don’t think you have a chance is a sure fire way to lose the locker room.

If it were a structural issue I would agree
Also, we have the open date next week
By all accounts it is a bruised knee and his mobility increased all during the week
My view is if he is mobile enough to protect himself, he should play
That being said, I think he should have a short hook if he is not performing well
