I sure hate that! It hurt me to see him when he went down Friday night. Wishing him a speedy recovery from the Panthers!

Not good. Reguardless of what was said in the interview, Vidor has capable back ups at that position. They just haven't been getting any reps during games. Not even in non-district games. Also the kid on JV looks pretty good. You would think that after Bolinger going down, that they would be more prepared for the possibilities of losing someone to injury.JMO!

Vidor made a huge, huge mistake by not resting players as much as possible last week vs. Liv. Now the damage is done...

I am defintely pulling for Vidor, but they have an uphill climb in front of them.  :-\

Have to agree. I saw the play Smallwood got hurt on. It wasn't long and he was back in the game.

This is a big blow IMO...Whats the nature of the arm injury? He came back in and played well the rest of the game.

I can tell you that i have gone and spoken to smallwood and the friday night football game or the time when he went down has nothing to do with why he is in the hospital. I'm not gonna go into detail about the reason he is in there but i can tell you it has nothing to do with football.

When you rest players at the high school level what message does that send? You can get hurt in practice so injury can and will ALWAYS be a part of football. Vidor as numerous RB it's just the next man up. There OL will put the holes there for him to run through.

Good point. The worst injury I ever had was a dislocated knee cap and it happened during practice.

[JollyRoger81]

Wow, I hate to hear that! Pretty big shoes to fill!  :-\

[BWOOD]

Look like "mytwocents" commented.  This has nothing to do with a football injury, is a lot more serious than that.  Let's keep him in our prayers!!!

[Purple Runs Deep]

Vidor has had more than their share of heartache this year, all the best to the Smallwood family.

Got a phone call last nite. Your right, nothing to do with football. Best wishes on a speedy recovery. WE WILL SEE HIM AGAIN IN ROUND TWO!!!!!

[Bigdog]

Not good.  It looks like Vidor will have 2/3rds of thier Offensive production out if Bolinger doesn't play.  I know Quirante was hurt earlier in the year, is he at 100% ?

[cat001]

Sad deal.

[dustoff03]

Vidor has pretty good back ups chomping at the bit to get in there. I believe they will answer the call.

I believe Quirante is fine.  He played a great game Friday night.

[Lions#80]

Sorry about your lost. Hope he gets ok. :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

[bobbymcgee]

I saw Vidor play once and have a suggestion for you folks: run a version of the wildcat with Quirante

He will be back in round two.  Has nothing to do with the injury Friday night.  As you know he was back in the game shortly after the injury Friday.

The Pirates will be fine Thursday night even if Smallwood doesn't play. Bolinger is back and chomping at the bit as well as Jeremy Stephenson (soph.) who's been getting in some good minutes. Montana is healthy and let's not forget our tank at fullback, Brentyn Clark. This is high school, not the pros. Losing our last two games in district was not an option and we played accordingly against Livingston going into the playoffs on the positive note we needed. Prayers from my family go out to David Smallwood and his family.

[Guest Pirate_pride_07]

TJ Novak looks good and even though he hasn't gotten some playing time he is big strong and fast and been wanting to play since his injury earlier this year. He should fill smallwoods spot well enough.

2 cents - I'm hesitant to make a pick on this one because Vidor is so "injured."  Is your post for real or is this just some more of your smoke?
