FlavaFootball Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Heres to hoping he has a full recovery. That has to be a tough injury for a stud high school prospect, hopefully our staff is supporting him and giving him the medical advice he needs. Link to comment
billdozer15 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Man, that is unbelievable. Does anyone know how this could affect his scholarship status? Would we still be willing to gamble on him knowing the severity of the injury? I know it would be a jerk move to pull our offer, but this aint Unicef. Either way i hope he has a speedy recovery.

Back In Black Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 i would keep him, i mean, if he can recover he will be stronger and could possibly be just as fast if not faster, he still has the knowledge and the instincts, i am sure Tom wont let this guy go Link to comment

Got to take him. Don't want to F up relationships with Texas high school coaches. I wonder what the scholarship implications are. If he needs additional recovery time, he might stay in Texas and not cost Nebraska anything. Link to comment
Alex 4.0 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 from what I have heard it isn't as serious as we are making it out to be. It's season ending, but the prognosis was good and he should have a full recovery by next fall. Link to comment

Likely is and would've been anyway. He needs to work on his coverage skills from what I've read. They may ask him to be a greyshirt though why they heal his leg, but that is risky business.

Is it a benign as a lot of fluid on the knee, that often feels like an ACL? Did he tear something as everyone previously indicated? Link to comment

From what I have heard he tripped over the yard chains as he was running off the the field and hit it on the cement. He will require surgery but they are saying he should make a recovery but I wouldnt plan on him playing next year. He tore both his ACL and MCL. Link to comment
lilred Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 According to Rivals he only tore his ACL... Is this right? If so i would think he could be back some time next year? Link to comment

That would be nice, though I think he redshirts no matter what. Being able to practice will ensure he is developed enough to contribute the next year. Link to comment

From what I have read, he needed some work on technique (probably the only reason he is not a 5 ) so a red shirt will help him develop. Link to comment
