OTF Premium Sarkisian on Emmett Mosley V Status (Wednesday 12:45 p.m.)

[CJ Vogel]

During the weekly SEC Teleconference, Steve Sarkisian was asked about the status of WR Emmett Mosley V and his availability for Ohio State.

Sarkisian's answer did not change from his Monday press conference.

"He is limited this week."

Mosley's availability remains up in the air for Saturday.

[Dread-headed Texan]

At this point he hasn't practiced in forever, play the healthy guys you trust and let him heal completely. You can't miss what you never had🤷🏿‍♂️

[HenryJames]

Might need to move on to Emmett Mosley VI.

Well done lol

[Bunk Moreland]

This might be a dumb question, but given that Sark has been so nonspecific and short in his answers about Mosley for the last week or two, is it possible this is a tactical move to avoid giving any clarity? Is it possible Mosley is further along than we realize and Sark is trying not to give anything away to OSU for their game planning?

Not move on, but the goal is 16 games and we're going to need him more later. We don't want whatever is ailing him to linger like Bond.

Yep, hasn't practice all fall.

McCutcheon, Butler, Lockett are the next three up.

Considering he hasn't been practicing, I don't think this is the plan.

It seems like the question isn’t will he play Saturday but will he be available against the OOC schedule or even Florida.

Probably the question that needs to be asked.

[HDub1995]

Is it purely injury related or something else? Sark’s answers haven’t made that super clear. Thanks for the update. 

[LonghornFan4Ever]

Don’t like that Mosley is injured, but this is a great opportunity for the young WRs Chris Jackson recruited from high school to step up.  That experience will bode well for them when they get into conference play and beyond.

[LovingBuckeye]

I'm going to move forward with the assumption Mosley will miss Saturday's game.

I am also going to move forward with the assumption that Goosby WILL PLAY on Saturday. Will Goosby start? Is that the expectation, or just play at some point?

Day is typically very secretive about injuries. Usually we don't find out until the 11am Gameday availability report, but so far there are no rumored injuries that Ohio State is dealing with. 

[NothinButDaHorns34]

Not ideal at all for a guy who we were going to heavily depend on this season miss most of fall camp.

I can't say for certain one way or the other.

If Goosby can play, he will start and right now that is where things are trending.

Have any of you played OL in high school or college? I have not, but it seems like it would impact the blocking for an edge rusher if you had a club or large bandage on your hand.

Can anybody speak from experience?

Hills talked about it today on Coffee and Football. He said it'll be up to pain tolerance and wouldn't impact his ability to punch but can be a hindrance in run blocking or a bull rush so we'll see. We don't know if he's wearing a club or not tho.

Is it injury or suspension?

Correct.

If the injury is bad enough could he redshirt this year? It would suck to only get him half a season when he could sit out and plan a full one next year.

No one knows what the deal is.
