Agree, hoping this is more on the minor side, than an ACL. That would suck. Good luck to Jason.

Trying my best to figure out what I can about the surgery, someone replied with "Is Dr. Kiritsis performing the surgery?" and google says that guy is a knee and shoulder surgery specialist.
Hopefully not ACL, shoulder not great either, but a lot better than ACL I would think. Good luck and quick healing in any case!

Either way we are still 8-9 months away from the tip of the next season so that should give him plenty of time to recover and repair from whatever it is to be ready to go. Sending good vibes out for Jason!
anything but an ACL. that's a 9 month recovery minimum. he'd miss the entire offseason and preseason. it's hard enough to have an impact as a freshman with all of the available work. I'd drastically lower my expectations for Jason's freshman year if it's an ACL.
true missing that time would hurt & he may not feel back to normal the first year too...if an ACL. Tho players do seem to recover better & more quickly with ACLs today than many years ago. Either way I'd expect he'll still play a lot because our roster will likely necessitate it.
“Nelson Sr. said the surgeon, Dr. Peter White of OrthoVirginia, told him post-surgery that the injury was worse than he'd initially suspected based on MRI results. It was a "complete rupture of the plantar plate with slightly retracted sesamoids," Nelson Sr. said. The injury required significant surgical reconstruction.”
Why on earth did they install turf basketball courts in the Queally Center?
Oooof. As someone who has had sesamoiditis and further complications from it that gives me a little bit of alarm. Those are your shock absorbers. Feels like you are always stepping on a small rock and gets worse as you keep wearing on it. To be fair though I did not have ortho virginia helping me out. Hoping for a speedy recovery.
who here was at UR during the time with the rug in the auxiliary gym? man that was a weird decision.
glad this wasn't an ACL but this is no joke. from what I read 3-6 months is the normal recovery time but it can take 12 months. and the surgeon did say this was worse than expected and required significant surgical reconstruction.
another concern is the cause. why did his plantar plate give out, and does the surgery fix that? hopefully this is a one time thing.

I remember the Hall of Fame lineman, Jonathan Ogden, suffered with turf toe, and missed games because of it.
It’s not something to joke about.

Carpet gym, weird, I agree but don't remember any ankle or knee injuries. Atkinson was in their the day after the season ended running with us scrubs. Remember going in the carpet gym and seeing Gravelle Craig working out and thinking this guy is too small to be on the team. 6 weeks later Dick Tarrant is talking about how he is one of the best players on the team.
Buddy of mine blew out his ACL in the carpet gym. I actually enjoyed shooting in there, but playing games was another story.
WTF is the auxiliary gym. Didn't ppl get mad at 8legs1dream for that. It was the carpet gym that's it.
Many good memories from carpet gym days, and all the bball and football guys would play there regularly too.
Annap i played number of sports thru HS growing up vs. Ogden. Besides a Hall of Famer a smart, gentle giant.

It is a weird surface to play on, luckily I am so slow that it probably saved me from any of those types of injuries.
millhiser never had carpet. In my era I found their floor a little slick tho. Played some hoops & handball there. The carpet gym was where the Weinstein center resides now.
I thought Chop was making a joke about Queally Center but maybe not.
Sometimes a diagram helps...carpet gym lost its carpet and then was eventually turned into the fitness portion of the Weinstein Center when they built the bigger gym directly adjacent.
Throw in the RC main court and the new QAC not shown yet on aerial, and that's a lot of current/former basketball courts in one spot.

I have still never been in Millhiser.
The few times I went in the carpet gym from the parking lot, I always assumed that was Millhiser, and wondered what the big deal was.
Since I have been between the Carpet Gym and Millhiser many times, I am obviously spatially challenged.
The more you know...
