Tyler Donahue?

Post by Globetrotter »

He is listed as having played. I doubt it is accurate. Did he play? Why would htey peel his redshirt as our onlint OL from last year?

He played, he was in on their last drive.

No actually he didn't play. He was standing on the sidelines, was not even dressed.

My bad, I read it as Tyler Donovan UW's back-up QB who was expected to start if Stocco's knee wasnt good to go.

There were at least two guys listed on BG's participation list from the final stats that were standing on the sidelines in shorts, Donahue and Shane Steffy.

Those initial participation stats often contain errors.

We were sitting next to some fans of Jeff Fink. Fink came in in the 4th quarter went out for a few plays. I glanced through the participation chart and didn't see Fink's name. They might have used Steffy instead on Fink.

I thought Steffy tweaked his knee during camp and was out 4-8 weeks? I believe that was Fink that came in.

I'm pretty sure it was Fink. He came in to replace Nystrom (I think?) when he left injured for a couple plays in the 4th.

It was indeed Jeff Fink...his family (about 8-10 strong) was sitting a few rows up and to our left...they went nutso when he entered the game...I realized it because I thought they were cheering that one of our guys got hurt at first, then saw they were thrilled that Fink went into the game.
