Plays Johnson on 8/31. Two husker RB's going head to head.

Here is something that happened at Grayson recently. Thought I would post this here.

I mean, I'd be concerned about full contact while in shorts too. Sure the leg pads don't do that much, but still.

I guess.  Kids wear girdles with all of the pads in them.  All you are missing is the knee pads, which are pretty much worthless anyways.  But, still not very smart by the coach to go live with just shells on.

Watching him play against Tucker Georgia right now. He's looked pretty good on the 2 carries he has gotten so far.

Im impressed with that Haines kid so far.  Only a So. but looks real good

 

[Chadhusker]

Tucker has a junior Db that has a nebraska offer . Tuckers qb is a big boy .

 

[The Murphinator]

He just got hurt. Holding his knee.

He just got hurt. Holding his knee.

Being helped off the field.  Looked to be his left knee.  Non-contact - trying to make a cut.

Had an ACL injury last year.  Not sure which knee.

 

[Huskadeez]

He tore his ACL in the right knee last year. He’s in tears on the sideline suggesting he knows that he just tore his left ACL. 

 

[Chadhusker]

I hope everything is ok. He looked great until then. I think once he gets in the program he will be taken care of.

Doesn't look good. It seems like every time I watch one of these HS games on TV with one of our commits they end up with a serious injury. Think I'm going to stop watching.

Hopefully it's not torn, but if it is, at least it happened in August and not November for recover purposes. Feel for the kid and his senior year if that's what it is.

 

[Chadhusker]

I think he's the real deal. He looked very good until he went down with that injury. I think the staff will take a look at him and make sure he's 100% before he plays maybe ? I think he would have red shirted anyway. He will be fine in 2 seasons . He sold me today . He ran real hard.

Any idea what the injury is yet? If you want to make a positive spin on every situation- at this point I dont think we will have to work hard to keep him since no one is going to come try to steal him away late.
