That oregonlive article said he's still got a visible limp, and that he's going to rehab it whenever the place is open. I hope he's not rushing back too soon. We can beat the Mutts without him. I'd rather have him with another week of rest heading into the USC game.

So hopefully that is a sign for good things to come but I am really afraid he will be injured again during the UW game.... imagine the USC game without Masoli... I dare not think about it. As much as Costa is a capable quarterback it would be nice to have our starter for one of the toughest game.

Let him heal completely and be full strength for usc. If he starts, and re-injures himself, its '07 all over again. I still cringe thinking about it. heartbroken agony doesnt even scratch the surface. I believe in Costa. Obviously a little rusty, but 3 years since hes started a game forgives the mistakes against the bruins. UW is not as good on D as ucla, all we need is costa to hand the ball off. UW has the 9th worst rush D in the PAC only ahead of WSU.

I don't see pushing Masoli unless we need him since if we win the USC game will be very important for us.
