They "think" it is MCL and doesnt feel like a full tear. The ortho surgeon i was with in my ortho rotation in med school basically said that means next to nothing until they get the imaging.

Granted, he came in under less than ideal circumstances, but you have to give your receivers a chance. I think we can beat Troy with him. So there's that. Quote Link to comment

Matt Masker is 3rd string, unless Vedral gets his eligibility. Quote Link to comment
r06ue1 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Question now is will the NCAA feel more pressure to allow Vedral to play? They do want big programs with big followings to win as it makes for more interest so I am leaning towards him getting approved this or next week especially if Martinez is out for an extended duration this season.

onlyHskrfaninIL Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 they may need student tryouts for quarterback before the season is over how about some wyattcat packages with mazour? Quote Link to comment
Dan_F_31 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 My buddy is a trainer for an NFL team. He said based on the mechanism of how they were testing it he knew it was MCL. Said 2-4 weeks depending on if the tear is on the femur or tibia. If the meniscus was damaged on that side then he’d be out much longer. They also could brace it and bring him back earlier but risk losing the ACL then. 1 Quote Link to comment

Pretty dirty. Edit: after watching that several more times he really twists his knee that's enough to cause a sprain. Yeah that looked pretty purposeful. 3 Quote Link to comment

NebraskaHarry Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Martinez needs to take all the time he needs and then some to make sure he comes back healthy. I feel like that wasn't done with Taylor Martinez and he was never the same. Take his time. Get right. The guy has a bright future so dont rush this imo. Nebraska will be fine in the meantime. 5 Quote Link to comment

Nebraska will be fine in the meantime. 100% agree. Unsure who rushed T Mart back (him, staff) or if he was actually healthy and just kept geting/staying dinged up. He was never the same. Neither was TA..... A Mart is the foreseeable future at QB. No one expected NU to make a run for the MNC this year. Stick with the plan. Build depth and experience. Continue to get better. The game will be here in 2 weeks or 2 months. I'm pretty confident Frost and Co will be 100% sure AM is ready physically and mentally to go when he goes again. I'm hoping just some mild strain/sprain form the twisting. A good tape job and some re-hab and he plays against Michigan. I guess we will all know more (I hope) in the next few days. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
