Clawson Presser--Wednesday is Tuesday, Thursday is Wednesday edition

Pretty bland presser today.  I think the whole thing was hampered by the fact that the one reporter who always asks Coach Clawson how "frustrated" he is wasn't there.  So that sped things up.  And, eliminated a silly line of questioning.

Anyway, the key thing in terms of information is that none of the injured players are expected back.  Bojicic, and Minturn are both very doubtful, as is Ray Hutson.

The good news is that PJ Mahone has earned his way back onto the field after a six game suspension.  He is going to get significant snaps back there at safety, and it will be good to get him back.  I'm glad he has done what he needs to to get back onto the field.

Coach says Buffalo is a lot like BG in that they have had some close losses (he didn't mention a miracle win, too) and could easily have a better record.  Drew Willy left, and Buffalo had to fill his shoes and Zach Maynard has been pretty effective as a replacement.  (Coach says he has "good wrists" and I have no idea what the heck he is talking about, unless he just started to babble when he knew no one was going to ask him how frustrated he was).

Obviously, Roosevelt is an outstanding WR, and they are down to their 3rd RB and Coach likes him too.

On defense, he likes their safeties.

He likes being on national TV, too.  He isn't as fond of playing on Tuesday, which had driven the staff into a paralyzing day redefiniton project in which game day is Saturday and everything else tracks back from that, except you have a couple Tuesdays to practice for the wrists.

He said Keith Morgan had played well and had some breakdowns.  He says a player doesn't really mature into a good player until he is in his second season as a starter.

Jerry Phillips will continue to do kickoffs and Norsic will go FGs.

He thinks Freddie Barnes should win the Biletnikoff....which isn't too shocking.
