Nope, just a short ****** kid with bad knees and ankles trying to play varsity football, lacrosse, and basketball every year

To be Honest...you never come back better than ever from an ACL.....and alot of times it's a mental issue....you naturally become hesitant to make the same cuts, and plants.

Man, my brother was a freak case who did. Tore his ACL the first week of his senior season. He was a 4.75-4.8 type person prior. After rehab he was a legit low 4.6 guy eventually.

Not going to lie, kind of ****ed me off that he ended up faster than me.

But I will acknowledge - that was a freaky outlier from my experience with ACL athletes.

Shid, the injuries I've seen on jumps... never seen any cigarette rolls or blue tape.

I had plantar fasciitis when I was 23, I had to use my aunts cane for a couple months lol. Brutal.

Have dealt with PF in both feet but finally have it under control.

I feel like this has been expected for months.

But isnt it too late if he wants to play this season? Is he willing to sit out 2022? Seems weird.

My over 40 soccer team is called Unatletico. Where's the love?

 

[Go Canes!!]

He better have a landing spot before going in or he may never get out.

Rubenstein???

Sucks if true. I thought he was going to shine for Miami.

 

[SayWhat]

Kid was hyped as ****, can't miss this recruit, and then injuries. Wish him all the best and I truly feel sorry for him and others who had their careers derailed because of injuries. This is one young man who deserves no shade if he does try his luck elsewhere. It's hard to hang them up, but maybe it's time, get that degree here, and go pro in something else.

Not necessarily.

Again, people forget about the waiver process. And if he ends up suing Miami for bad medical treatment, I'm sure the NCAA would give him a waiver to play somewhere else.

I genuinely thought Inter Miami was a joke 5-a-side name.

 

[TexasCane90]

Disappointing really thought we had something with him when we signed him…. Good luck to him wherever he lands.

JUST F_CKING LEAVE ALREADY FOR FLUCKS SAKE

Isn't he graduating by now, in which case he'd be a grad transfer and not have to sit out or apply for a waiver?
