BigWillie Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Well, the only bright side is he did this now. The development of our younger CBs become even more important this spring. Big hit to the defense though as it slows down Blue's development. http://www.journalstar.com/blog/huskers.ph...p;pb=1#comments Quote Link to comment
huskerguy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 This really sucks, but hopefully he'll be up and ready for fall practice... thats what counts anyway. Hopefully we can hear more about the specific injury and know a timetable for it. Quote Link to comment

huskerfan500 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Hopefully he will be good for fall practice and the season Quote Link to comment
Huskerballz Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 He either tore his ACL, LCL, meniscus or cartilage, or all of the above at the same time. At the most, with medicine these days, he'll probably be back practicing or at least conditioning by July or so. Quote Link to comment

At the most, with medicine these days, he'll probably be back practicing or at least conditioning by July or so. It's different from person to person. But after last year with how we rushed Bowman back, we should take it slow with Blue. He has his redshirt available, so that is a plus. If he doesn't heal entirely or until late in the season, he could likely apply and get a medical redshirt as well. Quote Link to comment
MCAT800 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Well there isn't anything real specific stated in the article as to what he injured so lets hope and pray for the best case scenario. Quote Link to comment
real'97champs Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 My friend jimmie who works in the omaha world herald sports section is reporting that he will be out for the season with a major acl tear Quote Link to comment
eliot1171 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I sent him a message giving him best wishes. I haven't heard anything on a timetable yet. Its still too early. Quote Link to comment

zoogs Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I don't see how there are two pictures to look at. Bottom line, if he's too hurt to play, he's too hurt to play. Ouch. This is going to be a big blow. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Injuries are never good, no matter how long the recover period is. Hopefully he can make it back for fall practice. Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I hope the best for him and that he has a speedy recovery. You're my boy Blue!!!!! Quote Link to comment
