Love the article
Hate that JHunt admitted that his knee "doesn't feel normal at all."
That's a little bit discouraging

Probably the mental angle that everyone was hinting at all spring.

Can't be a great read... didn't say Dooley stinks, can't coach, or should have won in spite of what Fulmer/Kiffin did to the program.

For what it's worth, when I was a Sophomore in high school, I tore a meniscus in my knee and had it scoped. Meniscus is a pretty quick healing injury, but even after I started running and doing squats and lunges again I would still get swelling sometimes and occasionally pain, especially if I went swimming.

You can't really compare the two injuries, but I can empathize with what he is saying about it feeling strange.

Considering some of the things that ESPN reporters or other people have been fired for, I can't believe nobody has brought up how offensive this article title is to a certain brand of people.

Good read and thanks for posting the link.

I still believe we're headed in the right direction but this has always been a 4 to 5 year total rebuilding project and this is just Spring and the beginning of year 3.

This is the year we start seeing more positive results and wins on the field.

VFL...GBO!!!

Thanks AllVol.

What the heck was this... "It’s far from a formidable early opponent, but there are few higher-profile settings in Week 1".

NCST is far from formidable?

lol Solid.


I actually thought (at a glance) that OP was allvol123 and was initially confused by the thread title. Seemed a little positive for him to post....

Those of us that have had an ACL reconstruction know that is normal. Mine was 14 years ago and I still know it is there. Other folks that have been through it have said the same. I can tell you that after a few years I realized that the surgical knee became more stable and actually stronger than the other because of the attention to rehab and strength training. Being a world class athlete Justin will get over it and trust it much quicker than most of us do.

But it will take him two years despite what people say to get back to 100%. It always does. That is why I am not worried about Marlin Lane. He will be back to around 100% of what he can be physically by fall.
