I think it will help the team alot with him on the sidelines for their games. He brings so much intensity, while it will be hard for him to have to watch and not play it will mean alot to the team.
Also, while he won't be Herzlich, Dominick Legrande has supposedly looked great as the replacement. He was a QB is HS, a safety last year as a freshman, so he brings great athleticism to the position like Mark and supposedly has a great football IQ. I think people are sleeping on BC a bit this year, I saw Andre Ware on Espn pick them to win 2 games. I know QB is a question, but they have a great line, 2 VERY good young RB's, and as good of a secondary as any team in the ACC. I dont think they win 9 or 10 games, but i think they finish over .500 which would be a heck of a year considering everything that happened.
