That's terrible. I'm all for starting TR, but an injury wasn't my wish at all. Zion is inching closer to the field again.

 

[Bongo Fury]

They will both likely play and maybe even Tucker. I wish them all success. Forgot about Millen too.

The people’s champ is now the starter. Team feels bad, but knows the guy who will take them to the promised land is now in charge.

 

[DoctorWho85]

Man that sucks. I personally wanted to see Roberson lead the offense, but not because of injury. I hope Joe has a speedy recovery.

 

[businesslawyer]

Well, we got over 5 full quarters out of this year's #1 before losing him for the year. Clear improvement over last year.

Sorry to hear it. Do we know what the injury is. Based upon the way he landed I thought he subluxed his shoulder but given that he's out for the season I wonder if it was a rotator cuff issue.

 

[Buffett10]

Well time for Roberson to let it loose. Nothing to lose

My assumption would be a torn labrum

I hope you’re right! I am looking forward to seeing what Roberson can bring to the table.

 

[Tdaley]

This is why you need 5 quarterbacks on your roster that can play.

The fifth grader in me wants to comment, but the 55 year old in me says "shut up."

 

[Hey Adrien!]

I agree with this sentiment 100%.

Hope Joe gets better soon, but I am very excited to see what Roberson can do.

Does anyone know where Brayden Zermeno went? Did he leave UConn or did he just leave the team?

 

[UCMB88]

Just read the article on WFSB.com and got a good laugh:

"UConn is 0-2 on the season, with losses to both N.C. State and Georgia State. The hits keep coming, with powerhouse FIU coming to East Hartford for a 3:30 p.m. showdown on Saturday."

If FIU is a powerhouse, wonder what they'll write about Tennessee?! LOL!

That being said, hate to see any player go out with an injury.

I wish I could say I didn't laugh at that, but I did.

With last year's season opener injury Ta'Quan, I felt the team kinda rallyed around Zion. Maybe this unfortunate injury to Joe F will have the team likewise rally around Ta'Quan. This may get Zion more practice reps and allow him to step in more confidently when called.

 

[Chin Diesel]

I wish I could say I didn't laugh at that, but I did.

You also did the math to figure out the 2033 season will be the season has a starter stay healthy all year.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Sucks for Joe this is probably how his playing career ends, hope the team is able to lift his spirits.

But honestly, this might save our season. I was concerned when Mora was apparently blind to the difference in production when Roberson hit the field, and thought he’d throw away another winnable game to give Fagnano one more chance. Now Mora/Nick have to put their all into building around Roberson, who clearly should’ve been the man according to any unbiased observer.

 

[Bubba1957]

Before coach Mora, when a backup quarterback that we all wanted to see would finally get a chance, it would turn out worse. When we thought we hit bottom, something else would happen. I sure hope the curse has been removed.
PS bad sports weekend for me:
Uconn
G-men
The Martian goes down for the year.
Pls Roberson be good.

 

[ZooCougar]

Roberson should have been the starting QB to begin with. In my mind we are just down a backup QB.

True, and I was surprised he wasn't the starter. But I still feel bad for Fagnano. Kid went out there and gave it all and put it on the line in a Husky uniform.

We made a big step forward with the depth chart this week with this news.

 

[MKH2317]

Honest question, when was the last time we had a QB win the job in August and last the entire season. Was it Pindell? I feel like we’ve been in the middle of a QB fiasco forever
