Re: OLB HARRINGTON
He is going to give it a go. I would not expect much from him in terms of productivity as I suspect that he will be on a snap count with assessments after each game.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
I know we don’t expect a huge year from him but I am hopeful he stays healthy and has a massive year to prove everyone wrong. After all he has been through it would be a great story for him to be All-SBC this year. You have to admire his drive and determination to end his career on a high note.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
I think at the very least Brendan will bring us some incredible leadership in the locker room, which will be huge.
But, I too, hope he’s able to have big year.
GO APPS!!

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
It very much would be good to see him have a good year and stay healthy. I think his snap count will keep his numbers and overall production at a level that keeps him from consideration for post season accolades. I’m a big fan of BH so I am rooting for him.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2023 5:08 amI know we don’t expect a huge year from him but I am hopeful he stays healthy and has a massive year to prove everyone wrong.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
Did he have a stinger type injury or something? Obviously this hasn't been published anywhere (nor should it be), but I am curious about the injury that wouldn't allow him to be a full send but would allow for situational packages. It seems like you'd want to be able to go full tilt as a player.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2023 6:07 amIt very much would be good to see him have a good year and stay healthy.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
I’ll answer your question this way. And this is in no way meant to be a smart a$$ response. You don’t sit out the year with a stinger. You don’t wear the type of arm brace that he wore for an injury like that.ericsaid wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2023 11:20 amDid he have a stinger type injury or something?

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
I can see why people are expecting that but I hope he stays healthy enough he can exceed expectations.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2023 6:07 amIt very much would be good to see him have a good year and stay healthy.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
I understand that. I am far less interested in his on field production than is long term ability to live a quality life. I want him to be able to lift his grandkids up to hold them.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 23, 2023 2:36 amI can see why people are expecting that but I hope he stays healthy enough he can exceed expectations.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2023 6:07 amIt very much would be good to see him have a good year and stay healthy.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
Given his injuries, how many years of eligibility does he have? 
Personally hope he has opportunity to play as he seems like a good kid and wants to play.
With that said, the medical team needs to be monitoring him closely and make best decision for him long-term.

Re: OLB HARRINGTON
I am saying that I hope he is healthy enough to be able to enjoy this season, play well, and still have a good quality of life later on. My fingers are crossed that his health is better than we think.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 23, 2023 6:57 amI understand that.
