Blue Suffers Knee Injury

[chamrocck]

I also wish Blue a full and speedy recovery. I enjoyed seeing him play more and more last year. This gives other guys a chance to show they can play. It will be interesting to see who emerges as there will be much playing time to be gained.

He was an emerging star.

 

Now only time will tell.

 

I wish him a speedy recovery but fear the worst.

NU Football: CB Blue will miss spring

BY RICH KAIPUST

WORLD-HERALD BUREAU

 

LINCOLN — Nebraska will go through spring football practice without cornerback Anthony Blue.

 

Coach Bo Pelini confirmed Tuesday that the sophomore-to-be suffered a knee injury recently in winter conditioning. The severity of the injury was not immediately known.

 

Blue played in all 12 games last season as a true freshman, including two starts. The 5-foot-10, 175-pounder from Cedar Hill, Texas, was credited with 18 total tackles and one pass breakup.

 

Blue was expected to go into spring practice as a candidate for a No. 1 job at cornerback. NU must replace seniors Cortney Grixby, Zack Bowman and Andre Jones. Only Armando Murillo returns with starting experience.

Hopefully he heals well and when he comes back is as good as he is now. I remember how Willie Amos was never the same.

Man, I'm starting to get bad feelings here!!!! Remember all the injuries last season???? Don't start this crap again because I can't take it.
