Ryan Karl Injury

[Freak]

Did you guys here what happened to Ryan Karl? I knew that he had hurt his back in the weight room but I never heard exactly what had happened.

Apparently, he was doing step-ups with a lot of weight and rolled his ankle. When he did, he lost his balance and fell. He landed on his butt and the weight landed on his shoulder.

Karl said that it scared pretty bad because, at first, he though he might have broken his back.

Ouch.

So if Karl isn't ready to go at the beginning of the year, who do you all will most likely take his place? Myers-White?

Either AMW at SLB or Mayo moves to SLB and Wilson comes in at MLB. Either way, we will be just fine. Talent-wise, it would likely be a step up.

Id put my money on him but if not I would guess Dorian Davis would be the other top option.

Davis is a WLB and needs to mature before he will play significantly.

I think Karl will be ready. He was going to do some light hitting today.

Talent-wise, it would likely be a step up.

Perhaps, but Karl is one of our defensive leaders mentally. Either way, we'll be fine.

Wilson, I guess you're talking about Ellix. I always forget about him.

 

[hvwarrior58]

Yeah Ellix. I said talent-wise. Karl is a leader, though.

Speaking of LB's, I was watching a replay of the 2004 UGA game and I started wishing that we could've had Omar Gaither for a couple of more years.

Gaither would have been nice in the LSU game last year.
