I totally get it.
I realize that we operate better with him, but also don't want to rush him back before he's fully healthy/ready - that can only make things worse.
Absolutely making whomever your next opponent is have to prepare for him actually playing is the right route to take.
My comment was just me being a general overall smart aleck.

I believe neither is a 5th metatarsal so VT has that going for them.**

If he isn't using misinformation to fool NCSU, then it's not a fracture.
