| 11/15 | 1:18pm | Chip Bowden | QB | Out | Knee | Bowden is out indefinitely after suffering a significant knee injury in Army's week ten game.

Next game: Utah vs California on 12/23
|
| 12/08 | 4:10pm | Jahvid Best | RB | Questionable | Concussion | Best was transported to the hospital after suffering an injury leaping high into the air on a touchdown run win week 10. CT scans and x-rays came back normal but he missed the last three games of the regular season. Sophomore Shane Vereen finished the Oregon State contest and filled in as the Bears' starter. Best is questionable for Utah. | | 08/19 | 5:30pm | Tad Smith | TE | Out For Year | Knee | Tad Smith has a torn ACL in his right knee and is out for the season. Unless he petitions the NCAA for a sixth year of eligibility, his college career is over. The fifth-year senior used his redshirt year in 2005. Smith had been battling sophomore Anthony Miller for the starting job. He was primarily a backup last season and played in 12 games, catching three passes for 23 yards and a touchdown. Smith's absence means Miller should begin the season as the starting TE with senior Skylar Curran and RS freshmen Jarrett Sparks and Spencer Ladner fighting for a backup role. |

Next game: Central Michigan vs Troy on 01/06
|
| 08/13 | 1:22am | Taylor Bradley | CB | Out For Year | Academics | Junior Taylor Bradley will not be with the 2009 football team because of academic ineligibility. One of two seniors, Tommy Mama or Kirkston Edwards, is the likely candidate to take over the CB spot for the projected starter. |
|
Next game: West Virginia vs Florida State on 01/01
|
| 12/10 | 10:38am | Rodney Hudson | G | Questionable | Knee | Junior LG Rodney Hudson missed the Maryland and Florida games with a sprained knee he sustained during the Wake Forest game and is questionable for the Gator Bowl (West Virginia). Hudson is considered to be the top offensive lineman for the Seminoles and one of the top guards in the ACC. He would be replaced by Brandon Davis, who came on in relief of Hudson during the WFU game. | | 12/10 | 10:37am | Jajuan Harley | S | Questionable | Hamstring | True freshman ROV Jajuan Harley missed the Florida game and is questionable for the Gator Bowl with a hamstring injury. Harley is a reserve safety for the Seminoles. | | 12/10 | 10:37am | Richard Goodman | WR | Questionable | Groin | Senior WR Richard Goodman missed the previous four games and is questionable for the Gator Bowl (West Virginia) with a groin injury. Goodman, a reserve WR, has already missed time this year due to injury. | | 11/10 | 8:57am | EJ Manuel | QB | Starter | N/A | Redshirt freshman QB EJ Manuel will start at QB for the remainder of the 2009 season. Manuel entered the FSU program after a highly successful prep career in Virginia. So far, he has only attempted two passes in his college career. | | 11/10 | 8:47am | Christian Ponder | QB | Out For Year | Shoulder | Junior QB Christian Ponder will miss the rest of the 2009 season with a Grade 3 separation of his throwing shoulder he suffered against Clemson. He left the game with the injury and did not return (was replaced by redshirt freshman EJ Manuel). Ponder has emerged as the leader for the Seminoles and is considered one of the top QBs in the country due to his improving accuracy and ability to make plays with his feet. The highly-touted Manuel will finish the season as the No. 1 QB. | | 11/06 | 10:59am | Garrett Faircloth | T | Out | Hip | True freshman LT Garrett Faircloth did not play against NC State due to a hip injury and is out indefinitely. Faircloth is a reserve OT for the Seminoles. | | 10/30 | 10:23pm | Vince Williams | LB | Out | Back | Sophomore MLB Vince Williams has not played this season and is out indefinitely with a back injury. Williams is listed as the No. 2 MLB on the Seminoles depth chart. His injury opens the door for more playing time for Rechardo Wright. | | 10/20 | 7:58am | Maurice Harris | LB | Out For Year | Neck | Sophomore LB Maurice Harris will miss the rest of the 2009 season with a neck injury (cervical burner) he suffered during the GT game. Harris is a reserve WLB who has made one start this season for the Seminoles. In six games played in 2009, Harris made 15 tackles. With Vince Williams yet to play this season, Harris' injury hurts FSU's depth at LB. | | 10/20 | 7:54am | Demonte McAllister | DT | Out For Year | Ankle/Redshirt | True freshman DT Demonte McAllister has missed the first five games of the season with an ankle injury (out indefinitely). With fellow tackles Mincey close to returning and McCray returning, it is unlikely that McAllister will play the rest of the season. McAllister remains eligible for a redshirt. | | 10/19 | 9:15am | Caz Piurowski | TE | Out For Year | Torn ACL | Senior TE Caz Piurowski will miss the rest of the 2009 season with a torn ACL and MCL. Piurowski was considered to be a great blocker (injured while blocking during a TD run) and viable receiving option (13 catches for 182 yards and 2 TDs in 2009) for the Seminoles. Beau Reliford and Ja'Barris Little will fill in for Piurowski. | | 10/11 | 11:40am | Aaron Gresham | LB | Out | Knee | Sophomore LB Aaron Gresham is out indefinitely. The No. 3 MLB on the depth chart is suffering from an injured knee. His absence, along with the anticipated absence of No. 2 MLB Vince Williams, leaves the Seminoles thin at MLB. | | 10/11 | 11:39am | John Prior | T | Out | Knee | True freshman OT John Prior is out indefinitely with a knee injury. Prior is a reserve OL for the Seminoles in his true freshman season, but it appears he will receive a redshirt. | | 10/02 | 11:26am | Antwane Greenlee | T | Out | Knee | Redshirt sophomore RT Antwane Greenlee suffered a Grade 3 sprain of his MCL. A timetable has not been set with regard to Greenlee's return. Greenlee was involved in a tight battle with sophomore Zebrie Sanders (2008 starter) and redshirt freshman Rhonnie Sanderson for the starting right tackle position. | | 08/10 | 5:09pm | Marcus Sims | FB | Out For Year | Transfer | Senior fullback Marcus Sims has transferred to N. Alabama. He started eight games in his three-year Seminole career. |
|
Next game: Bowling Green vs Idaho on 12/30
|
| 12/08 | 4:34pm | Nathan Enderle | QB | Probable | Shoulder | Enderle sat out the two of the past three games but has been upgraded to probable for the Bowling Green bowl-matchup. He was hurt late in the win over LaTech on Halloween but stayed in the game and led the Vandals to a pair of scores. Enderle was the nation's 10th most efficient passer completing 62.2 of his passes prior to the injury. Backup Brian Reader started in weeks 10 and 11. | | 08/21 | 10:38pm | Virdell Larkins | S | Out For Year | Left Team | Senior safety Virdell Larkins has left the program, HC Robb Akey announced after Idaho's second scrimmage Wednesday. The third-year coach declined to give a reason for the departure of last year's leading tackler but did say it was an unfortunate situation. The Vandals have senior Jeromy Jones and junior Brandon Artz who might be able to fill in at the free safety spot. |
|
Next game: Kentucky vs Clemson on 12/27
|
| 12/10 | 10:47am | Ronnie Sneed | LB | Questionable | Shoulder | Sophomore LB Ronnie Sneed is battling a shoulder injury that caused him to miss the Tennessee game.

Sneed is a reserve LB for the Wildcats. | | 12/08 | 7:46am | Sam Maxwell | LB | Out | Shoulder | Senior LB Sam Maxwell will miss the Music City Bowl after undergoing surgery on a torn labrum. Maxwell, the starting SLB for the Wildcats, recorded the single season record for most interceptions by a Kentucky LB (six). He will be replaced by freshman Ridge Wilson and junior Jacob Dufrene. | | 12/08 | 7:37am | Mike Hartline | QB | Questionable | Knee | Junior QB Mike Hartline missed the rest of the regular season after having surgery to repair a torn MCL in his knee. He tried to play against Vanderbilt but could not find any sort of rhythm and could not play through the pain. He is questionable for Clemson (Music City Bowl). True freshman Morgan Newton will remain the first string QB during Harline's absence, with Randall Cobb subbing in during Wildcat formations. | | 11/04 | 9:23am | Qua Huzzie | LB | Out For Year | Shoulder | True freshman LB Qua Huzzie will redshirt after having surgery on his injured shoulder. Huzzie has not played in a game this season despite being projected as the No. 2 SLB coming out of spring workouts. | | 10/14 | 10:24am | Jake Lanefski | G | Out For Year | Knee | Sophomore Jake Lanefski will miss the rest of the season with a severe knee injury according to head coach Rich Brooks. Lanefski is a reserve offensive lineman who plays center and both guard positions. Lanefski's injury will hurt the Wildcats' depth on the offensive line, as his injury is the second season-ending injury to a reserve offensive lineman for Kentucky this season (Marcus Davis was the first). | | 09/06 | 12:20pm | Marcus Davis | C | Out For Year | Ankle | Junior C Marcus Davis will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery to repair a dislocated right ankle. Davis was filling in for suspended starter Jorge Gonzalez. Redshirt freshman Matt Smith replaced Davis in the Sept 5 game against Miami (Ohio). | | 08/30 | 9:37am | Aaron Boyd | WR | Out For Year | Redshirt | Sophomore WR Aaron Boyd will be redshirted for the 2009 season. The reserve WR played in 11 games in 2008, catching five passes for 46 yards. Head coach Rich Brooks says that Boyd's maturity level is a concern. "In hindsight, it might have been wise for him to redshirt last year," says Brooks. | | 08/26 | 8:13am | Jonathan George | RB | Out | Ankle | True freshman RB Jonathan George will miss at least one game with an ankle injury. The reserve tailback had impressed coaches during preseason camp with his burst of speed and ability to make big plays. | | 08/25 | 5:48am | EJ Fields | WR | Out | Foot | Redshirt freshman receiver E.J. Fields will miss most of the season with a torn ligament in his foot. It was announced that Fields would undergo surgery on his foot. Fields sat out his true freshman year with a hamstring pull. He was expected to be "in the mix" for playing time as a redshirt freshman this season. | | 08/09 | 5:04pm | Jeremy Jarmon | DE | Out For Year | Suspension | Senior Jarmon has been suspended for the 2009 season after testing positive for a banned substance. Jarmon co-led the Wildcats in QB-sacks a year ago and was named to the 2nd Team All-SEC. Jarmon's departure leaves UK with a corps of very inexperienced defensive ends. | | 08/09 | 5:00pm | EJ Adams | WR | Out For Year | Personal | Adams has left the football team due to personal reasons. He played in 12 games as a junior in 2008, starting nine, and caught 14 passes for 180 yards. He played cornerback his first two seasons at UK before switching to receiver a year ago. Kentucky appears set with a the starting trio of Randall Cobb, Chris Matthews and Kyrus Lanxter at receiver. | | 08/09 | 4:53pm | Chris Cessna | TE | Out For Year | Medical Hardship | Cessna has given up football because of injuries. He plans to stay in school and will receive a medical hardship scholarship. He did not see varsity game action during his two years with the team. | | 08/09 | 4:51pm | DeAunte Mason | QB | Out For Year | Transfer | Mason has transferred to Alabama A&M. He was not going to be involved with the Wildcat offense in 2009. |
|
Next game: Marshall vs Ohio on 12/26
|
| 11/28 | 8:56am | Courtney Edmonson | WR | Doubtful | Leg | Edmonson is unlikely to play on Nov. 28 against UTEP due to a leg injury after failing to play since injuring his left leg during Marshall's first game against Southern Illinois. Originally a starter at wide receiver, The Herd have turned to Antavious Wilson, Chuck Walker, and Wayne Bonner to fill the void and all three are playing well. | | 11/28 | 8:56am | Darius Marshall | RB | Probable | Ankle | Marshall sprained his ankle in week 11 and couldn't play on Nov. 21 against SMU. He got back on the practice field Monday and should be considered probable to return on Nov. 28 against UTEP. The star RB has rushed for over 1,000 yards and 11 TDs on the season as the focal point of the Herd offense. Martin Ward has received the second most carries but is yet to get consistent work this year. | | 11/22 | 11:16am | Robert Henry | TE | Questionable | Undisclosed | Henry suffered an undisclosed injury in week 12 and is questionable to play on Nov. 28 against UTEP. With top TE Cody Slate out for the year, Henry was elevated into a starting role. Without him, the Herd are extremely thin at the TE spot. | | 11/20 | 6:25pm | Cody Slate | TE | Out For Year | Knee | Slate has been lost for the season after a tear in his ACL was discovered following what was thought to be a minor knee injury. When healthy, Slate is the Herd's top TE, and frequent target on offense. | | 09/24 | 8:12am | Troy Evans | WR | Out For Year | Foot | Junior WR Evans will not play again this season after breaking his foot in week three. Evans, who provides depth in the Marshall receiving corps when healthy and also sees time as a kick returner, will take a redshirt and keep two years of eligibility. Highly regarded freshman Michael Rhynes seems like the most logical candidate to replace Evans, however Marshall may want Rhynes to keep his redshirt and look elsewhere for help. | | 09/24 | 8:09am | John Saunders | FS | Out For Year | Neck | Saunders was carted off the field on a backboard in week three. While he did have movement in his extremities and was able to give a thumbs up to the crowd, he is not likely to be able to return to the football field this season. Saunders had made 14 tackles on the season. Omar Brown is his most likely replacement in the starting lineup. | | 08/12 | 7:16pm | Josh Evans | OL | Out For Year | Transfer | Junior OL Josh Evans decided to transfer from Marshall citing personal issues as the main reason for leaving. Senior Landis Provancha is listed No. 2 on the depth chart although the Oregon transfer has no game action as a part of the Thundering Herd. |
|
Next game: Miami (FL) vs Wisconsin on 12/29
|
| 12/08 | 8:09am | Jason Fox | T | Probable | Irregular heartbeat | Senior LT Jason Fox missed the USF game with an irregular heartbeat and is upgraded to probable for the Champs Sports Bowl. Fox has made 47 starts for the Hurricanes, and one more would tie him with NFL superstar Ed Reed for 2nd in school history. | | 12/07 | 10:02am | Eric Moncur | DE | Questionable | Lower extremity | Senior DE Eric Moncur is battling a lower extremity injury that kept him out of the previous five games. He is questionable for the Champs Sports Bowl. Moncur has missed two games earlier this season with a groin injury. | | 11/20 | 9:44am | JoJo Nicolas | S | Out For Year | Upper extremity | Junior SS JoJo Nicolas missed the Clemson, Wake Forest, and Virginia games with an upper extremity injury and is downgraded to out for the season (will have surgery). The No. 2 SS has missed a handful of games this season due to illness/injury. | | 11/01 | 9:54am | Patrick Hill | FB | Out | Lower extremity | Senior FB Patrick Hill missed five games with a lower extremity injury and is out indefinitely. Hill, the No. 1 FB on the depth chart, is one of the top blockers on the team. | | 10/30 | 10:36am | Gavin Hardin | DE | Out For Year | Upper extremity | Redshirt freshman DE Gavin Hardin will miss the 2009 season with an upper extremity injury. Hardin was the 2008 scout team DPOY. Hardin did not appear on the depth chart at DE after spring practice. | | 10/16 | 12:29pm | Richard Gordon | TE | Out For Year | Arm | Senior TE Richard Gordon had his right arm in a sling during the Sept 9 practice and has not played since. He is ruled out for the season by head coach Randy Shannon. Senior Dedrick Epps (last year's starter) and former UM basketball player Jimmy Graham have been stepping up in Gordon's place. | | 10/16 | 12:28pm | Adewale Ojomo | DE | Out For Year | Jaw | DE Adewale Ojomo had surgery in mid August for a broken jaw and is out for the season. HC Randy Shannon, who confirmed Ojomo had surgery but would not disclose the injury, reiterated after practice that the sophomore was hurt "horsing around in the locker room." Shannon said Ojomo, who started three games last year and is one of the bright young stars at defensive end, is out indefinitely. Shannon repeated that Ojomo was not suspended for any reason. | | 10/16 | 12:28pm | Marcus Forston | DT | Out For Year | Lower extremity | Sophomore DT Marcus Forston missed the FAMU game and is out indefinitely. Forston missed the VT game (Sept 26) with a lower extremity (ankle) injury but returned for the Oklahoma game. There is a good chance that he will redshirt this season according to head coach Randy Shannon. Forston was considered the top defensive lineman on the Canes roster and one of the top DLs in the ACC entering the 2009 season, but he has struggled with injuries this season and has yet to record a tackle. | | 10/13 | 11:27am | Ryan Hill | CB | Out For Year | Upper extremity | Senior CB Ryan Hill missed the FAMU game with a shoulder injury and is likely out for the season. The senior reserve defensive back made five starts (in 13 total games) at CB last season, making 34 tackles. Hill has already missed one game this season (FSU) with a shoulder injury and currently qualifies for a medical redshirt (has only played in three games). | | 10/13 | 11:25am | Dyron Dye | DE | Out For Year | Lower extremity | True freshman DE Dyron Dye missed the Oklahoma and FAMU games with a lower extremity injury. He is likely out for the season according to head coach Randy Shannon. Dye is a reserve DE for the Hurricanes in 2009. His injury affects Miami's depth at the position, with Andrew Smith battling back from an injury and Eric Moncur also trying to fight back from a preseason injury. | | 10/13 | 11:04am | Jordan Futch | LB | Out For Year | Knee | Sophomore LB Jordan Futch will miss the rest of the season with a severe knee injury. Futch had started two games for the Hurricanes and was an important performer on special teams. Fellow sophomore Sean Spence will continue to start in place of Futch. | | 10/05 | 11:36pm | Shayon Green | LB | Out For Year | Torn ACL | True freshman LB Shayon Green will miss the 2009 season with a torn ACL. Green was expected to provide depth at the MLB position this season. |
|
Next game: Navy vs Missouri on 12/31
|
| 11/23 | 9:54am | Vince Murray | FB | Probable | Shoulder | Murray, the Midshipmen's leading rusher, did not play in week 11 against Delaware due to a shoulder injury however he's expected to go on Nov. 28 against Hawaii after a week off. Employing an option offense, Murray, QB Ricky Dobbs, and SB Marcus Curry are the leaders on the ground. | | 08/22 | 10:08pm | Nate Frazier | NG | Out For Year | Dismissed | Senior nose guard Nate Frazier has been dismissed and is no longer on the Navy football team. Commander Joe Carpenter confirmed that the nature of the issue that led to Frazier's dismissal from the team is administrative and is not criminal. Senior defensive end Jordan Stephens moved inside to nose guard this week at practice. Junior Chase Burge, Frazier's backup, will also get a look. |
|
Next game: Stanford vs Oklahoma on 12/31
|
| 11/26 | 7:12am | Adrian Taylor | DT | Probable | Leg | A leg injury knocked Taylor out of Oklahoma's week 12 game but the team has him listed as probable to go on Nov. 28 against Oklahoma State. Taylor has started the entire season on the defensive front. | | 11/26 | 7:12am | Ryan Reynolds | LB | Doubtful | Leg | Starting LB Reynolds endured a leg injury in week 12 and has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful to play on Nov. 28 against Oklahoma State. He is near the top of the Sooners' stat sheet in tackles. | | 11/22 | 11:42am | Ben Habern | C | Out For Year | Leg | Habern broke his leg in week 12 and will not play again this season. The freshman had been a regular starter at center. He will be replaced by junior Brian Lepak. | | 11/10 | 12:38pm | Jarvis Jones | OL | Out For Year | Heel | Jones will not play again this season because of a heel injury suffered in week ten. He becomes the fifth offensive starter that the Sooners have lost for the campaign. With fellow OL/TE Brody Eldridge also out for the season, Oklahoma becomes extremely thin up front. | | 11/10 | 7:36am | Auston English | DE | Out For Year | Ankle | English has a torn tendon in his ankle and will not play again this season. The oft-injured DE ranks second on the Sooners with four sacks this year. It is expected that sophomore Frank Alexander will slide into his place in the starting lineup. | | 11/10 | 7:35am | Brody Eldridge | OL/TE | Out For Year | Shoulder | Eldridge was removed from Oklahoma's week ten match-up due to a severe shoulder injury that will force him out for the remainder of the season. A jack-of-all-trades, Eldridge has served as both a tight end and offensive lineman this season. | | 10/25 | 2:34pm | Sam Bradford | QB | Out For Year | Shoulder | Junior QB Sam Bradford left Oklahoma's week seven game against Texas with a right shoulder injury, the same injury that knocked him out for three games earlier this season, and he has elected for surgery, ending his season and almost certainly his college career. Bradford is the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, but now the capable Landry Jones is given the keys to the Sooner offense.
| | 09/27 | 10:49am | Mike Balogun | LB | Out For Year | Eligibility | Balogun is out for the season after losing his eligibility battle with the NCAA. His college football career is over. Balogun was the likely starter at MLB for the Sooners after Tom Wort went down for the season and the Oklahoma defense loses a lot of veteran leadership without Balogun. | | 09/12 | 9:18pm | DeMarcus Granger | DT | Out | Back | Granger is out indefinitely as he recovers from a back injury, According to HC Bob Stoops, Granger is "...a ways away" from making an impact on the football field. After being a starter in 2007, Granger competed in a reserve role last year while dealing with lingering foot and back injuries, the latter leading to surgery. He was expected to back up at the DT spot again this season. | | 09/09 | 7:58am | Jermaine Gresham | TE | Out For Year | Knee | Gresham did not play on opening night against BYU because of a knee injury and will not play again this season. The star TE has cartilage damage in his knee and needed stitches to repair it. Gresham will be replaced by the combination of Trent Ratterree and James Hanna. The 2008 first team All-American had 66 receptions for 950 yards and 14 touchdowns and is widely regarded as the best TE in the nation. | | 08/22 | 12:29pm | Tom Wort | LB | Out For Year | Knee | Heralded freshman Tom Wort will miss the 2009 season with a torn ACL, providing another hit to the Sooners' depth at MLB. He was expected to immediately join the Sooners' playing rotation and contribute on special teams. Starting MLB Ryan Reynolds has been sidelined for some practices with a slight hamstring injury. |
|
Next game: Oklahoma State vs Mississippi on 01/02
|
| 11/28 | 8:57am | Victor Johnson | S | Doubtful | Knee | Johnson did not play the past two weeks due to a knee strain suffered last week in practice but is probable to return on Nov. 28 against Oklahoma. When healthy, he is one of the Cowboys' top options in the secondary. | | 11/24 | 7:42am | Zac Robinson | QB | Probable | Concussion | Robinson is expected to return on Nov. 28 against Oklahoma. He suffered a concussion after he was leveled by a bone-jarring hit late in OK State's week 11 game. He was on the turf for an extended period before being helped off, but the Cowboys never needed another QB as a late Texas Tech drive sputtered at the final whistle. Robinson was originally expected to be ready to play on Nov. 19 against Colorado according to HC Mike Gundy, however he was ruled out late in the week. Brandon Weeden is the only other QB to have taken a snap for Oklahoma State this season and took the start last weekend. | | 11/22 | 11:35am | Brady Bond | OL | Questionable | Ankle | Bond
was removed from OK State's week ten game due to an ankle injury
and was unable play the past two weeks. Consider him questionable to return on Nov. 28 against Oklahoma.
Bond had started every game this year on the offensive line before the ankle sprain. | | 11/22 | 11:33am | Andre Sexton | LB/DB | Questionable | Leg | Sexton suffered a leg injury in week 12 and is questionable to play on Nov. 28 against Oklahoma. The senior plays the "star" which is a linebacker/safety hybrid spot and is one of the best defenders the Cowboys have. | | 10/28 | 8:23am | Dez Bryant | WR | Out For Year | Ineligible | Bryant has been ruled ineligible to play by the NCAA for failing to disclose the entire extent of his relationship with a former NFL player. His season is over. When eligible, Bryant was among the top wideouts in the nation, having hauled in 17 receptions for 323 yards and 4 TD already this season. | | 10/05 | 8:31am | Jeremy Smith | RB | Out For Year | Shoulder | Freshman RB Smith suffered a shoulder injury during week five practice and will be lost for the season. Smith had a breakout game in week four against Grambling, getting the first 15 carries of his career and compiling 160 yards and a TD. After the game, HC Mike Gundy said he was planning to give Smith an increased role in the offense that has been without top rusher Kendall Hunter for the past few weeks, but now that will not happen. | | 09/04 | 6:41am | Orie Lemon | LB | Out For Year | Knee | Lemon has suffered a torn ACL and is out for the season. The projected starter at MLB's injury leaves a hole in the Cowboys defense, however HC Mike Gundy is confident in his depth at the position. Donald Booker is Lemon's likely replacement having seen action in all 13 games last year and ranking fourth on the team amongst returning tacklers. Tolu Moala and Justin Gent should be in line for more reps on game day as well. | | 09/02 | 5:45am | Jamal Mosley | TE | Out | Personal | Mosley is out indefinitely after leaving Oklahoma State for personal reasons. The sophomore was the projected starter at tight end, but with Mosley out, fellow sophomore Wilson Youman is expected to be elevated to the top of the depth chart. Youman played in all 13 games last year making one catch. | | 08/29 | 8:21am | Kye Staley | RB | Out For Year | Knee | Reserve RB Staley suffered a severe knee injury during a preseason scrimmage and will be lost for the year. Staley was slated to begin the year at third on the running back depth chart behind All-Big XII back Kendall Hunter and experienced backup Keith Toston. His injury opens the door for JUCO transfer Beau Johnson to get into the running back mix. |

Next game: TBA
|
| 11/22 | 10:49am | Derrell Smith | LB | Out For Year | Knee | Syracuse lost yet another defender for the year in leading tackler Derrell Smith, who was injured prior to 'Cuse's week 12 game. He had been playing with a torn meniscus before succumbing. | | 11/17 | 2:24pm | Mike Jones | WR/KR | Out For Year | Hip | Jones has a tear in his left hip flexor muscle and will not play again this season. He ranked fifth in
the Big East in kickoff returns, averaging 24.1 yards per attempt. He
also had eight carries for 61 yards and three receptions for 16 yards.
| | 11/17 | 1:59pm | Dalton Phillips | TE | Out For Year | Concussion | Phillips has been lost for the year after suffering a concussion, becoming the third Orange TE to endure a season ending injury. At this point, HC Mike Marrone is so deep into his TE rotation that Syracuse shouldn't expect much production from the position. | | 11/10 | 7:27am | Jonathan Meldrum | OL | Out For Year | Knee | Meldrum has been lost for the season because of a knee injury. The junior was an anchor on the front five having started all nine games at right tackle. It is not known who will step up and fill the void on the line with Meldrum's season finished. | | 11/10 | 7:25am | Arthur Jones | NT | Out For Year | Knee | Jones season and career are over following a torn meniscus in a right knee suffered during Syracuse's week ten matchup. The NFL prospect was named first-team All-BIG EAST last year and owns the Orange record for tackles for loss with 38.5. | | 11/09 | 8:49am | Max Suter | SS | Out For Year | Arm | Suter suffered an arm injury in week ten and will be lost for the remainder of the season. The starting safety is one of Syracuse's leading tacklers and sixth in the BIG EAST in tackles per game. Freshman Philip Thomas is listed as his backup. | | 11/09 | 8:48am | Cody Catalina | TE | Out For Year | Knee | Catalina was knocked out of Syracuse's week ten match-up due to a knee injury that will keep him out for the rest of the season. Carl Cutler moves into the starting lineup as Syracuse is perilously thin at TE with Catalina and Nick Provo out for the season. | | 11/04 | 7:26am | Jared Kimmel | DE | Out For Year | Knee | Kimmel is done for the year due to knee surgery. The backup defensive end will likely be replaced by either Brandon Sharpe, a pass rush specialist, or Chad Battles, who hasn't gotten much work this season. | | 11/02 | 6:18pm | Mike Williams | WR | Out For Year | Left Team | Williams is no longer a member of the Syracuse Orange after quitting the team prior to week ten. No reason for Williams' departure was given. The receiver was tops in the BIG EAST with 49 catches for 746 yards and six touchdowns. Williams had a tumultuous career, being suspended for all of 2008 and one game this season. | | 10/07 | 12:16pm | Nick Provo | TE | Out For Year | Knee | Starting TE Provo suffered a knee injury in week five against South Florida that will keep him out for the season. Provo has made four catches for 55 yards on the season. Cody Catalina is the #2 TE on the depth chart, but he is also injured. As long as Catalina is out, expect Andrew Robinson and Carl Cutler to get more action than normal at the TE spot. | | 09/05 | 7:30am | Dorian Graham | FS | Out For Year | Shoulder | Sophomore FS Graham will not play this season for the Orange after injuring his shoulder in late August. He was penciled in to start at nickle back. Randy McKinnon is the likely recipient of most of the plays vacated by Graham, but Grant Mayes will likely get some reps as well. | | 08/17 | 11:41pm | Derek Hines | LB | Out For Year | Left Team | JUCO transfer Derek Hines has decided to leave the Syracuse football team. He had been penciled in as the starting weak side linebacker heading into fall practice and left the team within a week of the start of training camp. Taking over the starting role vacated by Hines is true freshman EJ Carter with junior Ryan Gillum backing him up. The Orange have only seven remaining scholarship linebackers. | | 08/11 | 2:26am | Mike Mele | LB | Out For Year | Transfer | Junior Mike Mele has transferred to U. of Mass. He ranked third overall in tackles for the Orange after starting all 12 games last season. Syracuse was already thin at LB even before Mele's departure. |

back position, Gold is yet to resume full practice since being injured
in week two. | | 09/23 | 3:48pm | Coryell Judie | CB | Out For Year | | |
