    I seriously doubt Snyder would have contributed much this year. But its still bad to hear this.

    Take it from the gumps who have experienced first hand what ONE weak spot on the OL can do for a qb. They get bumper stickers made after them. Remember "Honk if you sacked Brodie." ?

    But most off all I hope the young man can return to playing.

    Did Ciron Black start as a true freshman or redshirt freshman?

    I think Ben Wilkerson started as true freshman, but I think it was a couple of weeks into the season.

    I think CLM has shown that he has the ability to persevere through adversity (Katrina, "Home" games in Arizona, etc.). I trust he will find a way to secure th OL before the season starts.

    But I have to tell you, as a former OL/DL in high school, it feels good to see all this anxiety over one of our "grunts".:grin:

    I would guess that the injury probably had little to do with the amount of contact, and probably more to do with an already weak knee for the young man.

    Once the ACL is gone, the knee is never the same again.
