Munir Prince of Missouri Tigers quits football after scary injury - ESPN

I wish him good health ... and that's pretty much it.

I hate it whenever ANY athlete gets such a severe injury.

 

[unkydave]

It's crazy how things change in just a few short years. I also wish him well. The guy has had some really bad luck.

wow...can't believe he was still around. I interviewed him at the 2005 US Army All American bowl..he was a junior at the time...right before I interviewed Tebow

That's impressive. Some day I hope to meet Tebow. If I do I'll ask him about the time you interviewed him.

Hope you don't ban me, but that was kind of irrelevant name dropping there..

Let alone the fact your father even ran for state senate in Iowa in a republican dominated district during the '08 election

I have met Jon Miller.

How is THAT for a name drop?

Jon, had he "flipped" at that point? And did he still maintain that IOWA "lied" to him?

 

[hawkod]

Didn't he go to Notre Dame initially?

 

[MelroseHawkins]

I have a feeling Jon Miller & Tim Tebow will be battling for the same job in about 3 yrs, & no, I don't think Jon will all of a sudden find NFL QB qualities or ability. But, it does seem Jon has a nice QB size to his frame. 6'4" - 6'5". How tall are you anyway, Jon?

Outstanding. I have too!

But it pales against doing my business at a urinal adjacent to the Chicago Sun Times' Mike Royko at a Northwestern game. I did say hello, and he was annoyed for some reason

"Quits the team" has such a negative connotation. Makes it sound like a tantrum or something like that.

But transient quadriplegia? Horrifying.

Hope he gets well and there aren't any long lasting physical or psychological injuries...
