Curious if the few weeks off after UGA is enough for him to be healthy for the bowl game in that case.
I hope so. HK absolutely refused to sit out this game, and his toughness and resolve showed. I don't know how severe his injury is, but I'd imagine he'll be nursing that shoulder until the off-season.

How do you know this about his current injury? Just curious. I haven’t heard or read anything official about the diagnosis of his injury, but I don’t keep track of all the team news, so I may have missed this.
May be mistaken, but I thought I heard it mentioned by a teammate in one of the media sessions. I remember being surprised at the specificity of the comment; as I'm sure they are coached to avoid discussing any injury in detail.

Well... now you ruined it.
No, that’s super psycho warfare. They’ll know we think they’ll think it’s a plant, but then they’ll figure we’re trying a psy ops and not practice it. Then we’ll do it and bust the winning explosion play.

Folks around the program have finally opened up a little bit about it - I probably shouldn't say who. One of the big changes that CBK made when he first took over is to cut off injury info - it was immediate and thorough. Kudos to him for reining in the whispers and locking down the gossip-fueled world of injury reports.

The entire athletic department was a leaky dam in terms of info. There was a reason Cabrera went outside of the athletic department when he named an interim AD to head the search for the new AD that ultimately took us to Batt. They learned their lesson on who they could trust during the HFB coaching search, and it's a tight ship now. Notice you don't hear much about possible candidates for head coaching and assistant coach jobs until it's done. It's not just a Brent Key thing.
