Knapp a no go this fall

[ISUDL]

Doctor didn't clear him to play.

 

[clonerules]

bummer!

welcome to the board :wink:

Dang. So I assume Alvarez is the next man in, unless there's someone else who can long snap?

 

[MaxPower57]

I know they've been working Lamaak, Stephens, and Tuftee at center as well. I would love to see Lamaak playing there if Haughton is a go, if not, then Alvarez is probably the man.

How can they tell this far out?

 

[The_Architect]

Dang, that hurts.

Hmm, I read this thread title as "Knapp a go go this fall" and it woke me up.

I don't know in this case but he could have a Carper situation where they told him he's risking a lot in the future if he tries playing again...

The question is, what future? There is the outside shot he can make the NFL but I seem to think he is too small to do so. For all he knows, this is all he has left in his career.

Isn't a little eerily to declaring some one as a no go for fall?

Don't we usally hear this in the fall?

 

[Omaha Cy]

I doubt his career is done here, but maybe a medical redshirt is in order.

Like the the future rest of his life being able to walk like a normal human being without limping or pain.

Probably more of a, "This could affect the way you walk the rest of your life." I know there is little more to life than Cyclone football jimlad, but long term consequences are likely a part of this call.

(jtdoyle1: you beat me to that one by 2 min - how did I miss that post???)

 

[ISUDL]

He told me himself, said he'll probably do film work. I'll ask him about the medical redshirt possibility.

 

[Jack & Hilton]

Someone help my memory, what game did knapp tear his acl? Wasn't it the first game back after appendix surgery? Tough luck for him.

Carper, Sandvig, now Knapp. Why did they make it so ACLs could tear?!?

 

[ISUDL]

Actually it wasn't his acl, it was a patellar tendon rupture. Texas A&M game.
