@GeorgiaTechFB: .@GTPaulJohnson said B-back Zach Laskey will miss #GTvsPITT Saturday and his injury will be evaluated week-to-week

Well that just sucks.... Even though I think everyone expected that, still sucks knowing that it's true now.

Well it doesn't sound like a broken collarbone. Hopefully just a mild separation.

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

That sucks, but it doesn't sound like he is out for the entire remainder of the season.

This is great news to me. If he is only week to week, it isn't that bad (compared to a broken collarbone requiring surgery or whatever.)

I still hope CJ gets live reps to make him better next year. We will wish we had the BB experience come next year.

If a high ankle sprain can keep you out a couple of weeks, a shoulder injury could really keep you out for a while.

 

[Blumpkin Souffle]

Sprained AC joint? I know a couple guys in the NFL came back after a few weeks with this injury.

Doesn't immediately appear that surgery will be needed, that's great news.

Heal up soon Zack.

This is encouraging. I hope Days does well as our BB (as long as he holds on to the ball, no problemo) and that Zach comes back sooner then we think.

The big problem is that with Days at BB we lose some of the edge blocking we've become used to. Easy solution = keep Perkins and Hill on the field more. Problem with that = they won't be as fresh when we need them. But, hey, this comes with the country when you get key players injured.

Get well soon, Zach! I'll really miss you until you get back out there.

If we get Laskey back by the Clemson game I'll be more than satisfied. Meanwhile look after that shoulder, Zach.

Get well - FIRST, then bring it. Gt to finish strong needs you! Hope u r ready by Clem as driving up for that defining game.
