In pads, no red Jersey, I'd say he's practicing. Even if he's just running routes. Blew out the knee in a non contract drill. Probably a good sign.
Has anyone ever heard of a situation where a football player has come back THIS soon after ACL??? It's definitely not a bad thing to see!!!
I'm the outlier here...I think we're in better shape this year than last. Coker was rubber stamped to get 95% of the carries...despite his plodding style.
His "total rushing" numbers are meaningless... when you take into account his yds/rush and our team rushing game. (poor compared to the rest of the conference) Those numbers tell the real story.
It may be a little rough at first, but in the long run we'll be a better team.
He's been practicing at full speed all of the fall. We are not in trouble at all and I would guess we will have the same production this year as we did last year.
That's nuts I had reconstructive when I was 21... No way after 5 month would that have been possible and back then I was in great shape. Amazing if true I know advancements in technology and such...but damn.
if he plants that foot wrong and twists on it, he's gone.
He never really tore his ACL. This was all a ploy, and a genius one, by Ferentz to fool AIRBHG.
Todd Blythe tore his ACL in the spring and came back in the fall as well, didn't he? Had a pretty good year, if I recall.
Here's a pics from Canzeri at practice today leaping for a catch. It's pretty crazy to see him practicing only 5 months into recovery.
