Did McCoy practice this week?

[Vfl2407]

I know he won’t play vs ETSU but really want him back
for UGA.

This is what most are saying. But the way CJH runs the show who knows.

That’s depressing.

Miss State game would be my guess.

 

[bigdaddy]

I mean 10 months from an ACL is pretty quick.

 

[OrangeInKy]

Im not sure how smart it would be to let his first game back be UGA, but I would bet money we don’t see him October. I’d guess UAB game at soonest but I doubt it. That would be the perfect opponent for him to come back against

Not planning to back before UGA.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

That’s depressing.

Ive heard he will play some against UAB and then start at Miss St.

 

[Oldvoldad]

Miss State game would be my guess.

Per AP, that is the target.

 

[cherokeeeVOL]

If he doesn't play this Saturday, he won't play against Georgia is what AP has said.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

My hope is that he stays healthy and can at least play at 90% of what he was last year which is still really darn good.

You really want a guy coming back to play his first game after ACL surgery to play vs UGA?

 

[jeff1vol]

We won't see him in a UT uniform again. He'll rehab and hit the draft. He's dunzo, IMO. He would've been a 1st round pick last year, so the GM's know what they are getting already.

He will have to show some film post injury to go first round.

 

[FBtime]

He will have to show some film post injury to go first round.

I am sure he will come back this year and have that film but pro day, private workouts and the combine will tell teams all they need to know.

Here is what I don't understand. Kelly Jolly tore her ACL just before the season started in 1996. She started and played a LOT in the NCAA tournament that same season. How is it that this injury has now been 9 months and we STILL can't get him on the field? Hasn't medical technology improved since then??

 

[volmandu]

other site discussion said what others are saying above: barring any setbacks suit up for UAB and get ready full time for Miss State ..

Gibson seems like likely out for most of the year if not all season

Kelly Jolly didn’t have millions at stake, people recover at different rates, he’s following a process/plan that gets him on the field as soon as possible.

I guess it shows the heart of a champion.....she was NOT going to lose out on a chance to win a natty..... Some athletes just have a different mindset

If the ACL tear is complete, playing on it won't hurt it further(though you increase risk of hurting something else because your body is naturally going to compensate for it using your other leg/etc), but the problem for a lot of football positions is you can no longer cut or pivot very well. Which for a position like CB, would be disastrous. The ACL is what provides stability for those movements.

Yank his NIL then.
