    The coaches will do what's best for the team. It's good to hear he is at least back practicing.

      With only two days of practice , you would think it would have to be an emergency of utmost proportions to put Sumner on the field against the #1 team in the country ,coming off of a major foot injury on a hard turf field.

        It is an emergency of utmost proportions - win or go home with no playoffs - possibly.

        Plus Austin doesn't have many games left in his career and I'm positive he wants to play. Why save him for later if he is medically clear?

        What a great morale boost for the team and fans!

        Go Jacks!

          I heard from some of the players that he has been throwing dimes. His arm strength is still there, but his mobility is the question. I personally would rather have a Sumner stuck in the pocket than a Lujan that can't sit in the pocket. He has a timer in his head when he imagines the D-line is on him. When the timer is up, Lujan scrambles for a yard. I would much rather have Sumner, especially because he will be able to throw a deep ball.

            If you want a QB that camps out in the pocket,Sumner is your guy. While i'm happy he's back practicing, we're gonna need a mobile QB against the Bison....mobile as in running for their life.

              This^. IMHO, the QB's that have had some success this season in the passing game seemed the most proficient when rolling out away from Kyle Emmanuel.
