Here we go...

I thought he has something wrong with his spine that makes it risky for him to play football.

 

[bpalmer28]

He's still on the team?

 

[DiderotsGhost]

I'm actually surprised that he's not retiring from football with his spinal issues. I wish him the best of luck regardless.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

I thought he has something wrong with his spine that makes it risky for him to play football.

I think I remember a "narrowing" of his spine or something.??

 

[rdk4121]

He must think that he is healthy enough to play, but UT doctors won't clear him or something like that.

 

[PG1]

And so it begins...

 

[jeff1vol]

I doubt that UT docs will ever clear him to play due to liability. He could probably go to a smaller school and get someone to sign off on it.

 

[feathersax]

So he's bailin'? Seriously, wish the best for the kid.

Stenosis. It's a narrowing of the spine. I have that in my lower back. Not sure if Buchanan has it in his neck or lower back.

 

[BeardedVol]

Jarvis Jones had the same issue. Went on to play in the NFL without issue.
'The NFL Beat': Spinal Stenosis.

I have that as well, 3 years and 2 surgeries later, I’m now able to use a walker. The young man needs to get that fixed. Now

What begins?

 

[A.J.]

What begins?

Mass exodus?

I wouldn't read anything more to this, than an issue specific to one player, regarding medical clearance. This forum has a tendency to overreact to such developments.

What does it say? Is our "kingdom" to be divided between Bama and UGA?

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I have heard there could be 1 or 2 more.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Mass exodus?

Overreactions such as this ^^^^.

I think you’re going to see a couple of more players hit the transfer portal after this season.

Probably so. That is what normally happens... to most college football teams. After the '98 championship season, we had a DB named Shawn Seabrooks transfer to Rutgers, even though he was getting playing time as a freshman. It happens.

 

[Pride85]

Here we go...

? He hasn't played in two years due to a spinal issue.

 

[Gandalf]

I wouldn't read anything more to this, than an issue specific to one player, regarding medical clearance. This forum always massively overreacts to such developments.

FYP

 

[livefaith]

This is not a real loss to our roster. Don't see the big deal here. If he wants to play somewhere, then a mid major could use him next year. The kid NEVER developed like so many others.
