Ervin possible torn acl

Well crap

 

[dinglefritz]

Well crap

Hard to say for sure. Could be a patellar tendon tear or something else but that didn't look good for sure. We're cursed. Should be ruled a fumble with a clear recovery by OU as well.

 

[ru4nu2win]

Thanks Doctor!

 

[The_Man_Behind_The_Man]

That really sucks if it is that! Wish him a speedy recovery!

 

[Husker Hambone]

Crap, feel for him

Pretty sure I’m college you’re down when a knee hits

Looked to me like the ball was out before his knee hit. You must be right because surely replay would over turned it...

 

[redfanusa]

Sad news. He was having a good game. Best of luck to him in his surgery and recovery.

 

[otismotis08]

If true, that's the worst news of the day. Losing a game is one thing. Seeing a young man suffer an injury like that is another. Sure hope you're wrong.

To be fair this is speculation, he walked off the field, could be a sprain, meniscus. Anything really.

It looked bad but if he could walk off that is a hopeful sign.

Yeah. Meniscus is as likely as anything. Been there done that and the pain is immediate and excruciating. On the other hand I tore my ACL and never knew it had happened until years after the injury. Hopefully it's not as serious as it looks. Anytime a guy collapses on the field and grabs his knee like that it sure looks bad.

 

[rrthusker]

Horrible news.

 

[HominidHusker]

Hope he can recover well. Tough break for him.

No Stepp today right? Interesting.
Rhamir looked ok.

 

[T...Chafes]

Almost looked like he could have broke something. Hope everything is OK with him....

 

[scarletred]

Why can’t we have good things..

Edited title to possible.

Looked like his toe got caught in the turf. If that's his injury it might be somewhat good news with a sprain or something like that. Bad news if his toe got caught because something popped right before that.

Rhamir looks pretty good when he gets his chances going all the way back to last black friday

Not sure why they don’t trust him to carry more of the load back there

He played a lot bigger today than what I've previously seen of him.

I’m supportive of RB by committee, but I’m not sure I like the feeling that the coaches can’t settle on any two guys.

 

[shine003]

Non-contact…definitely looked like an ACL. Hope I’m wrong.

 

[Baxter48]

He was having traction problems he slipped on a couple of plays where as johnson didn’t, I was wondering if he needed to change cleats or shoes

 

[NUSouth]

Freak accident. There was no contact at all and I didn’t see anything that looked unusual on the cut. Knee just gave out. A question for our S&C coach is why we have so many non contact injuries

 

[drubendall]

It's a mistake. We should have one back that gets 20 carries a game.

 

[John_J_Rambo]

ouch

Ouch, I saw that play he went down untouched on a cut. Yikes, didn't look good.

 

[cubsker]

Looked like he actually had a hole on that play too.

 

[dinglefritz]

As I suggested, it could be a patellar tendon injury. That fits the way it looked like it happened. Some small good news is that it's outside the joint capusle of the knee. He should be okay eventually but major tendon injuries are really tough for an explosive athlete. The recovery period might actually be longer if he had a complete patellar tendon tear than if he had blown out his ACL.

 

[GBRforLife1]

Speedy recovery.

 

[rrthusker]

Patellar tendon it is.

 

[regoratsginrom]

Anyone know how bad? Looked like non-contact ACL?

 

[HuskerOH]

Per Frost will miss most of the season if not all

 

[headcard]

 

[rrthusker]

Had surgery, out for the season.

 

[shine003]

Devastating injury. I’ll be surprised if he can ever fully recover.

 

[CameronKrazie86]

That does not sound like a fun injury to rehab, yuck. Get well soon Gabe!

 

[Suhrreal]

Anyone remember the play where Gabe ran into the big equipment chest on the sideline while he was standing upright? Wonder if that played a role in this at all. Just terrible for him as he was gaining confidence. Hope he can get back to 100% he's young so he has that going for him.
