Beanie Not Better

As I indicated in an earlier post, Tressel was expected to answer questions today regarding Beanie's status after practicing yesterday. In a 12:30 press conference he said that Beanie did not practice today and Beanie did not feel better today.

Tressel did not directly say Beanie would not play, but here are some quotes, "He had more soreness this morning than we had hoped for. A late afternoon practice followed by a morning practice, we hope that's a little bit the reason why. So we'll just have to play it by ear. We're hopeful, but he didn't work this morning." He also said, "We were hoping that this morning he'd wake up and feel ever better than yesterday. But it didn't happen. We've just got to see how this next 24 hours feels and if he can move around. And the thing we've been saying all along is that being able to move around and being functional at the job you have to do are two different things. And the thing I've been reminding him of is it is September, and we've got to treat things as they should be. I'm listing him as doubtful."

It sounds like it will be a gametime decision. I'll post more details as they are announced. Anyone think there is a conspiracy going, and Beanie is ready to play, hmm I hope.
