Emmit Gooden out for year with knee injury (confirmed by Pruitt)

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Has a torn ACL from practice yesterday. The 247 writers are saying they “Haven’t heard anything concrete yet” and will continue to monitor, which sounds to me like there’s at least something here.

Hopefully it’s not true and just camp rumors, if it is true, prayers for a full recovery.

Swain just said there is something to it...there was an injury...but he doesn’t know exact extent or details....expects CJP to say something today.

To lose Gooden would be such a big blow...damn.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

DAMN........

Hope Jake doesn't mind me moving his quote but he said it so well. Need to realize the impact and the need for Solomon to be eligible.

i don't think you can overstate the fact this if Gooden is out, it's a big loss. this is one position group we knew we needed some luck on in the health department....especially with the one guy that returns any type of production.

aside from JG, you could argue that EG was the next most important player to not have injury issues....

Take a step on out of that transfer portal, Kurot Garland.

Emerson, Kingston, Mincey.... it's year two, gonna need you to step up.

And NCAA, if you could take time out of your busy schedule and make a ruling on Solomon, that'd be greeeeaaaat.

 

[Jack Burton]

If true, I’m revising us down to 5 wins.

We can't have nice things.

It just seems like anytime something good happens to us (Keon Johnson) then something bad happens to us. It’s always been that way. We epitomize the saying...”we can’t win for losing”. Solomon is a must now IMO. Too bad we aren’t Ohio State because he would have already been cleared.

 

[Vfl2407]

Ain’t that the truth.
If Gooden is out, we really need Garland to-stay and Solomon eligible.

Exact thought i had.

 

[bigdaddy]

So I’m reading injury is confirmed but what exactly it is and severity we don’t know as of yet. I knew injuries were coming but man, this one hurts

 

[Brave Volunteer]

Sigh, it's never the 4th string long snapper.

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Man people are melting down and we have no idea what the injury even is lol. I get it though.

Yep. Just pick a couple of positions we could least afford injuries and watch 'em come. It's just the way things go at UT. A couple more recruiting classes and we will have the depth to cope. This year....not so much.

The person that brought the rumor to the RF early last night, before those paid sites, said acl.

I'm a 'wait and see' person but he earned my attention until it's made public.

I hate football sometimes. I really do.

This kid has fought through a lot to be in this position. He needed to play two years and get out of school as quickly as possible.

Man our program is so cursed. You just can’t explain how many bad things continually happen to us over the past 10 years. Meanwhile the ncaa won’t rule anything on Solomon yet immediately rules the qb from uga (that’s a total freaking idiot) eligible at Ohio state.
