Francois is hurt

Even with these steps, there is a minimum of 3 months until return of normal daily activities, and 4-6 months until sports should be resumed. While most people heal completely from a patellar tendon surgery, there can be long-term weakness even with a successful repair.

Yep. I had a patellar tear and a popliteal cyst from going too heavy on squats in high school. Insurance wouldn't cover surgery so I live with it (I'm 33). It's mostly healed as far as I can tell but every now and then my knee will buckle out of nowhere and almost take me to the ground. I can't be real active or it gets really weak and sore. Sucks.

Did we ever hear what was wrong with Gardner?

I haven't, but the podcast I watched earlier said he was seen in a boot and on crutches today. And no, I'm not joking, nor were they.

Thanks, was hoping it was just cramps, but that's too much caution for cramps

Bama lost 2 LBs for the season in that FSU game.

That's gonna hurt. They're probably down to only 5-6 5* LBs at this point.

By the way, this may be the one game this year where our QB is the better one.

Get real...

Wait till you're 63

Really sucks for the kid. I don't feel bad for FSU, but I definitely feel for DF. Other than signing with the Noles and wearing a manbun there isn't anything he has done to make me dislike him and I never want to see something like that happen to a 20 year old kid.

Sorry for Francois being injured and sorry for Alabama being a Monster again.

 

[Bama&GatorFan]

Sad that he is out for the season. Also sad that they will only need 3 points to beat the Gators this year. That is, when you combine their great defense with the Gators' offense, I don't see the Gators getting many points.

Feel bad for Francois, feel nothing for FSU.
