Looks like Zach Collaros will be back in time to lead Cincinnati against Vanderbilt on December 31st. As you may recall Zach broke his ankle against WVU on October 24th. If he is back to 100% this would be quite a remarkable feat.

Heard he's still tender when making cuts though. Definitely hoping for 100% by game time. I really wish I could make the trip to Memphis to this game. The Big East has a really good shot at going 5-0 in its bowl games.

Might was well bring it up on here rather than start a new thread, but did you see that Shaq Washington and Stephen Weatherford were transferring?

Yep.

Not surprised by Weatherford leaving. There was already a log-jam at the position with Munchie, Luallen, Kay, Coyne already there and now Coney and Norvell coming in this class. Shaq came as a big surprise but I am confident Butch Jones will find a replacement.

Looks like Zach will be starting, I wonder if Butch uses all three QB's throughout the game though. Certainly makes game planning for the Cats a lot more difficult.

Impressive to say the least. I'm no Cincy/Big Red fan but I gotta give credit where it's due.

Should be a shootout actually. One of the more entertaining games tomorrow.

You could put freaking Peyton Manning at QB for Cinci and I still wouldn't watch it.

Isaiah Pead had one heck of a game, so did RDA3. Good spring board into next year.

Oh Cincinnati magic name....

I hope Pead goes to the Bengals, incredible he had so many yards when the O-line was getting abused most of the game.

Isn't it RDA IV? He could be a gamechanger like Mardy over the next 3 seasons.
