He has compound fractures in the left tibia and fibula. He is out for the season. I hope that we have another receiver and special teams person waiting in the wings. I think that we can overcome!!!!

That's exactly what I told my husband when I saw it happen and the sportscasters were saying broken ankle. Definitely broken tibia and fibula when you see the films. The Pokey-and-Gumby-like bending of his leg was definitely above the ankle. I feel so sorry for him and his family.

That is what I cannot get over...his shin bent like your leg would bend at the knee but at a different angle. I have to think about soft kitties playing with yarn in a padded room to clear it from my mind.
You really hate to see that happen to any player. He would've had an amazing year. I think he did! That catch at the So. Miss game...I still can't get over it. How did he hang on to that ball? Impressive by any standards.
It was absolutely horrible to see - and from 3 different angles. He showed a lot of class on his way out of the stadium.
We have had several people in our neighborhood tell us they heard us yesterday during the game. We had a tv on the porch and all four of us were screaming - 3 Bama fans and ME - an Auburn fan - but I was pulling for the Tide yesterday!!! Kinda hard not to pull for the Tide when your husband and daughter both went to school there!!!
I spoke with a buddy this morning who is a trainer for UA. Ty's surgery was successful and he had no nerve damage. Doubtful he will be able to participate in spring practice, but he should be fine in time for fall camp in August.
