Dyoni Hill is not hurt (we surmise... because injury news is not reported)

Not falling for the OJ hype just yet until I see him out there with live bullets flying against UF.

Brown and Porter Jr sound locked in the rotation. Hill or Richard are fighting for the boundary corner starting spot I’ll assume. So OJ still has some work to do.

You better be careful talking like that about a first ballot HOF'er.

I have a different take. If he was "as advertised," Canes media would be talking about him in the top 4 or "in the mix" (instead of not talking about him at all). In more private settings, I have noted the conspicuous absence of any reporting regarding Hill for over two weeks. Every other player you named has been referenced by Canes media (whether CIS, Donna, Lake/Gaby, or Flo) over that span.

For instance, CIS posted this article 10 days ago on DBs:

DPJ, Brown, Richard, and OJ are all referenced by name. Among scholarship CBs, only Stafford, Hill, and Mack weren't named (but D$ has at least mentioned Stafford in more recent posts). A couple of days after that article, Alex Donno talks roster on his pod and Hill and Mack are the only two CBs on scholly not named. More recently Lake and Gaby did a pod and similarly mentioned every CB but Hill and Mack. Lake went so far as to name his unofficial "top 4" at CB and Hill wasn't named.

The silence seems intentional.

I did not see that Lake podcast where he didn't even include Hill in the Top 4 CBs. That would be a Sagapolu/Denis level disappointment to me given how desperately we needed quality CBs, and that there were several others that Memnon thought could help us in the portal that we didn't pursue.

Watching Vermin now, not sure I got anything out of it in terms of Hill's effectiveness. Did I miss something?

My assumption is it is a question of "the best" ability lacking at the moment. Just my assumption, though.

I hope you are wrong. With all due respect, to quote Ricky Bobby.

If you guys follow him on IG hes been producing some songs and looks healthy, no recent pics of him in workout gear though.

I really don't know what to think TBH. Is his performance good/mediocre/bad, disciplinary or injury?

It's weird isn't it? Weirder still is moving Brown to full time Nickle. That suggested to me they were good with Hill as the other starter.

Or maybe all along they were good with Richards as the other starter…Not as a definite starter, but at least as definite good chance as equal or a little better than Hill
