Sources have told DawgsCentral that Georgia wideout Arian Smith will need surgery after injuring his ankle while participating in a drill during Georgia’s practice on Thursday. Smith is expected to be sidelined for the remainder of UGA’s fall camp. Sources told Dawgs Central that UGA expects Smith to be back from his surgery early in the 2022 regular season, and he should return to action in 4-6 weeks barring any further setbacks.
Makes what Monken said about Smith at yesterday’s presser seem prescient, doesn’t it?
Sunny beach…hope you recover fully and quickly my Dawg

The way that dude is built, plus the way he attacks the day, he’ll be sidelined again with some form of hamstring or muscle pull, but he is a DANGEROUS man on the field or track…

Seems like he’s more dangerous to himself right now.

Hope he has a speedy recovery followed by even speedier post routes in the postseason when we really need him. Also, please keep Blaylock safe.

It’s a shame we’ll never get to see what he could have done if healthy for a whole season.

Alabama at least had M&W for all of the regular season, including a regular season loss that’s been erased from public record.

AS should probably retired from football and stick to track. His body can’t take it.

TBH I don’t know how anyone’s body can take it. It’s a game designed to kill the body and possibly the worst sport for the human knee.
But god I love it.

Hard for track sprinters to play FB, there have been some great ones but most were rare (see HW total track freak). I have always wish the good white boy track sprinter would come out but he has Zero interest in it.

Prayers for healing for him. He will be out until November probably.

Someone that is a doctor please let me know what kind of ankle surgery will fix him and make him full speed in 4-6 weeks. Color me skeptical. I think he wants to play football, and I want him to be successful at it, but if he can’t put a whole season together, it’s hard to imagine an NFL team taking a chance on him. Hope it works out, but I hope we have a Plan B if it doesn’t, and a Plan C, Plan D, etc.

If it’s a high ankle sprain, there are surgical procedures to heal it quicker than traditional techniques. Dr. James Andrews has been doing them for a while. Recovery is typically 4-6 weeks. But, who knows if that’s Arian’s situation?

I also read that. We are pretty stacked at RB however. The new guys are showing out from the various tea leaves I’ve read. RB depth should never be an issue for Kirby or UGA.

That’s why all spring and summer I keep saying, let’s see who survives Fall camp and then call our shots. Hate it for the kid, love that he has what should be a superior support system.
Milton does worry me a bit. CTM needs to be ready with his starters asap. What a sport to live and die for, same as it ever was. The TE and RB and OL and WR and LB and DB, oh hell. Make them monsters without them killing each other dammit.
