Nah, as high profile as he is, Peta would likely buy him to try and save him.

But seriously I hope he gets a complete recovery for his futures sake-no matter how long it takes...it sucks watching this happen to such a nice kid.

Needless to say I have still be chasing my now 4 year old and 2 year old around since that time and just deal with it.

You think you'll be ready to go for the USC game?

ESPN said he hurt his big toe

Nah,they would take him to the Daniel Galbreath Equine trauma center at OSU where my horse was twice.

The only thing that confirms is that ESPN is the last place to go for news.

ESPN didnt say that, ESPN said a friend of Beanie told someone that told ESPN he hurt his big toe, :P

Thank you for that.............................................. ....................whatever that was.

May have been mentioned already, but I really think he dislocated the big toe. Not a tendon tear, not turf toe, just plain had the thing pop out on him before he took that handoff. Not sure on the recovery time if indeed this turns out to be the case. Unfortunately, Antonio Gates had this happen last year and we all saw how long he was out.

That would have shown up on a x-ray, no?

Is there any update on Joseph Barksdale?

[gators312414]

I'm too lazy and tired to read through to see so I'll just ask straight up: How is Beanie doing after that injury yesterday? What is the extent of the injury? When will he be back? Will he play against USCw? And if so, how close to 100% can we expect him to be. As always, thanks.

I would say that not only would him being held out (till the USC game) benefit his recovery, but it would help our team our in a BIG way! We all know what capabilities this offense has with its biggest star, a win without it over a MAC team would only amp up everyone else's confidence. Boeckman would know that the pressure is on him to lead and play a bit more sharper, the receivers would feel the need to fight a little harder to get more open, the younger backs will get some great experience, and finally the line would be need to be that much more in sync.

Basically after my entire rant, I think Beanie being a no show for USC would be beneficial.

Buckeyes to wait and see with Wells
Tailback getting treatment for foot injury

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH


Fred Squillante | dispatch
Chris "Beanie" Wells is helped off the field Saturday against Youngstown State. X-rays showed no broken bones in his right foot.

There was no official word on the status of injured Ohio State running back Chris "Beanie" Wells yesterday, but he gave a thumbs up to Jamaal Berry.

Berry, one of the top running back prospects in the country, gave a thumbs up to Ohio State by becoming the 25th commitment to its 2009 recruiting class. He also might have gotten the scoop on Wells, whom he saw report to the Woody Hayes Athletic Center for treatment on his injured right foot yesterday.

"He said he's going to be OK," said Berry, who was visiting from Miami Palmetto High School. "I asked him how he was doing, and he seemed cool with it. He wasn't down or anything. He was like, 'No problem.'

"I guess he'll be back, if not this week (against Ohio University), he'll be fine by next week" for the trip to No. 3 Southern California.
