That is a bad break...I feel for the kid. I too hope he recovers well and gets a chance at the next level.

now days it is a pretty routine surgery and about a 6 week recovery I tore mine in '86...was in the hospital 3 days hooked up to a morphine machine... ....still have a screw in my knee and nice scar up the side of my leg. I was in college so my therapy consisted of going to a health club and sitting in the hot tub talking to co eds and then drinking enough beer to walk on it at night!! King is right though...my daughter tore her ACL in 8th grade during basketball...had day surgery on it in February and was playing volleyball by August.

LMAO Somehow I don't think the part highlighted above is 'stretched' even a little bit! Tough break for this young man indeed. Hopefully he gets it repaired properly and recovers fully. Not an easy way to finish up your senior year and get ready to start your college football career for sure.
