huskerhill Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 We don't want him to play though, right? Let him take the medical redshirt? That's an interesting question if we get towards the end of the season and he is cleared to play. Personally, I say sit him no matter what. If we lose some games, there isn't a chance of a championship so why waste his year on a non-championship year. If we are still undefeated, the defense is obviously playing well and why mess with what has been working? Sit him, let him heal. Ask for a MR and we then have three years with him left. Being cleared to run is to totally different from being cleared to play football. I think with that news, it's at least looking like there's a chance he'll be able to participate in the spring 1 Quote Link to comment

Actually he will be a junior next year. He has already redshirted. If he doesn't play this year after his senior year he could petition for the 6th year with a medical RS. Similar to what Sean Fisher could have done after his Sr. year. If he were to come back by some miracle this year he would not be able to petition for a 6th year. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 He's made it well known on Twitter that his goal is to be ready to play this season, the Minnesota game, I believe. I think it is great he is attacking rehab hard, but I think he should use the medical redshirt. That would be about 3.5 moths. That would probably be the quickest recovery ever, and probably by a good margin. Six months is a fast recovery time. Noble goal, but he won't be playing this year. Quote Link to comment

I'm talking about if he miraculously would be cleared for maybe the CCG or bowl game. Quote Link to comment

If he would get a MR we would have him for three more years. Quote Link to comment

RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Good news. @Rose_IveyNB15: Cleared to run... Happy 7 weeks post surgery today!! Already faster than BanderasPost of the year! Imo 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 For comparison, Leslie Smith was injured a month before Rose. He's hoping to play in January (right at six months). Quote Link to comment

I would imagine basketball players like him could probably come back a little quicker than a football player Quote Link to comment

I would think football but basketball puts a lot of sideways stress on the knees. Quote Link to comment

I would imagine basketball players like him could probably come back a little quicker than a football player It's the opposite, actually. Ligament and meniscus injuries in basketball usually have a longer recovery time than those for football players. A football player can be expected to return from an ACL tear in about 6-8 months, while the time frame for basketball players is usually somewhere in the neighborhood of 7-12 months, or longer. 1 Quote Link to comment
