    this may be a repost and im not sure if anyone has heard this or even if it's old news. but a friend of mine is on the lsu training staff and says that AB literally tore the ACL off his knee which is much more painful than tearing the actual ACL, but at the same time, not as hard to rehab and he should make a full recovery. Friday he has surgery. lets hope things go well for him, as he's one of the nicest guys and hardest workers you'll ever meet.

    Im not sure if I was supposed to say anything about this but I thought you guys needed to know :(

    when someone tells you your not supposed to say anything to anybody, what the means is, its ok to tell someone that "needs" to know......and trust me.....all 7,600 TF.com members "need" to know......so your cool!!! :hihi:

    I did hear that Ally was screaming like a banshee when he went down.

    yeah, my friend said that he was screaming wildly and that he was in horrible pain. but he's taking it very well and is determined to get back on the field.

    I tore my my right acl once and my left acl twice.
    It's no fun, yet I never screamed. Just cursed for about 20 minutes......

    Upsizin - I appreciate your info. But as someone who deals with HIPAA laws for a health system, I'd recommend your buddy on the training staff not divulge anymore health information like that. Divulging someone's health information without their signed consent is a BIG violation and I'd hate to see your friend get caught up in bind over it.

    much appreciated. she told me that it wouldnt be a huge deal if I told friends n stuff, especially considering she'd stay annonymous anyways and I just had to know. but she also jokingly warned not to tell the paper. I just thought you guys had to know.
