Absolutely hate it for him, after making it back once. Hope he’s got it in him to try again.

Quote Of The Day

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

I thought Zeus was two different knees? Did I steal the wrong medical file?
LikeLike
Terrible.
I hope its not the same knee. If so, he could be done.
Seems to me that the guys we’ve had that had the sane knee injured twice have never played again:
Sturdivant
Hollis
Scott-Wesley

That degree may require a medical disqualification…
CKS ain’t keeping him on the 85 if he isn’t going to be able to play. CMR would have.

Pretty sure (some number of ?) medical DQs can go over the 85 limit. Meaning, the kid still gets his school paid for but does not count against the limit.

I think I misinterpreted what you’re saying. Yea, don’t know……I don’t think Kirby is going to be nefarious about it, but if somebody can’t play for multiple years, he may not have much of a choice.

There’s no way he cuts him loose without a MDQ. If he takes away the scholarship, shame on Kirby. I don’t give a damn about cold-blooded sausage making or whatever. We owe the education to him even he can’t play again.

He’ll play again. It is his hands that make him special.

Here is the distinction, you can decide its relevance in your mind. I think its important:
CMR kept Hollis on athletic scholarship well after it was obvious that he’d never be able to play. But Albert thought he might. So we kept that dream alive no matter how unrealistic. Did the same thing with a safety (Antonio Sims??). Probably others I can’t recall. No one was forced to take a medical dq under cmr as far as I’m aware.
Saban would medical dq people who then transferred and suited up at other places only months later.
The significance of a medical disqualification is you can’t play at your chosen school anymore. In fact, Saban had more medical dqs in 2007 and 2008 than the entire country had over the same period. He was just chucking people off the roster based on bs medical reports.
So if CKS decides Dom is done and medically disqualifies him, he can’t play at Georgia again.
You can choose whether Dom should decide whether he’s done playing at georgia or whether CKS decides when he’s done playing at georgia.
If a kid wants to strive to get back and puts in the work, I say you have to stuck with him. Ymmv.

I think we should stick with him as well if he wants to stay. If Kirby medically DQs him to open a spot on the 85, I only hope he and the school don’t fight him on immediate eligibility.
I don’t think it’s going to be an issue (or at least, I hope not).

Saban’s done some sausage making, no doubt. He’s also won a whole bunch of championships.
I’ll take being the Scourge of the East while still being a class program. I sure hope the best for Dominick. YMMV. 😉

He’s got a Twitter account. I know personally that, especially with an injury, these guys appreciate feeling the love. For a 20-year-old who just did this already, he feels like he’s looking at forever before he plays again.
