Bogey… Darius had knee surgery in the spring. Isn’t expected back till October/November… On another note, I feel it incumbent to share this here. It is now public knowledge. Reese was approved by a team doctor for medical retirement. His body just hasn’t been able to perform and he’s been feeling like he’s a liability. He’s dislocated several fingers in the last week trying to protect his surgically repaired shoulder. And his hands were already a mess from high school. And as we all know, he played the better part of last season with a cast on a broken hand. Not to mention his two concussions in 4 weeks during spring ball his freshman year at ACU. He was a 4 year starter at LB in high school, and his senior year he played a 16 game season to win a state championship. Tack on two years of college football and you get a 20 year old with a beat up body. We definitely hoped to see him play against his HS teammate at Tech, Coy Eakin, on Saturday but it isn’t gonna happen. Good thing is that Reese is really confident that the transfer from ASU is for real and can play better than he can impaired the way he was. Just wanted you all to know beforehand why you won’t see 42 suited out on Saturday and for the rest of the season. Sad to hear this news. I coached against him for two years when he was as Stephenville. I was always impressed by him and have loved getting to watch him these past few years. I wasn’t able to finish my senior year at ACU because of injuries. I know that must have been a difficult decision. Wish him nothing but the best. As others have said on here, I’m confident he will be successful in whatever he pursues next!

Reece is a quality young man from what I hear, a credit to his family and a representative for ACU. I fully agree, with a full life ahead, injuries are a serious thing and avoiding problems later in life is a better choice. I still suffer from knee injuries and wish I could have avoided them. Here, Here to the best for Reece -- get well and live a wonderful future!

I like seeing the Wildcats clawing back into the game. That was a really good drive!

Ouch! That "keeping the score under 50" thing is looking more bleak by the moment, unless the D makes some adjustments.

Offense has settled down, but our defense HAS to step up.
