I thought it was a torn meniscus but it was so long ago in pre season practice I do not remember. I think why Ohio St cut him loose is because he was not medically cleared by their doctors but ours gave him the OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick.AU 13,279 Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 Big thanks to the mod for the edit on my OP! After about 4 tweets it's started acting weird about adding more tweets to the post/ it was acting slow. Thanks for the clean up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe WR or CB. He had issues last year with losing the ball. I surely don't want him running it on a more than regular basis I just think if he were to switch from QB, he'd get to practice carrying the ball more and run through drills that allow him to get stronger in that area. Would be a shame to waste speed like that. I think he'd be a great kickoff returner with a little time back there- he's got really good vision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that we need to lose bodies at Safety, but if we're going to lose someone, I'm glad it's a guy who had 6 tackles as a sophomore and not... say... our starting running back.

corchjay 5,311 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Mikey keeps track of these things and I think during Gus' tenure we are averaging like 11 a year for leaving early or transferring. He could tell you exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have 6 running backs and only play 1 or 2, you can absorb some loss. When you have 6 safeties and play 3 most of the time, losing one hurts. Matthews, Roberts, Ruffin, Character, Thomas....

I still think we can take it in stride better than losing Jovon for the same reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a knee injury in high school that was repaired when he got to Auburn. He rehabbed it during redshirt year, then tore his ACL just prior to fall camp if I remember correctly. Not sure if it was the same knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger 8,825 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I'm nervous about moving our returning OLinemen to other positions on the line, especially Braden who was so dang effective at RG. I know we have a new OC and that is literally my only hope that we get the best and the right combination at the right spots out there. But if I was Braden Smith I'd be happy. The earning potential for tackles is much higher than guards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyAU 3,630 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Dang. As much as I look forward to watching the young guys in Spring practice, I hate hearing about losing players, for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
