Because of the AA game where his team was trash?
I've been told everything from he'll be fine by spring to his season is in doubt. From sprained foot to achilles tear. I'm gonna guess it falls somewhere in the middle.
But tbh.. I don't think they're letting anything on. I haven't read a single thing publicly.. not even speculation.

Can't blame you for this opinion because of how it went down with him and UGA. They didn't even attempt to keep him in the fold. Not a good sign
But I've watched him play live multiple times and follow his district pretty closely.. I've never seen anyone look that good and get talked about by coaches in that area like they do for him and the kid not be the truth. He's playing top 1% competition in the country at Colquitt County. Nothing fluky about him.
It's just hard not to see his speed, acceleration, and YAC ability not translate well to Saturdays.
Lisfranc was the word on CIS.

So a timeline of anywhere from 2 months to a year depending on the severity of it. Guess that would make sense as to why I have a wide range of guesses on the timeline.
I'll never understand when guys talk down the U. you gotta believe in this place despite the recent years of mediocrity.
I saw a tweet pic of citizen practicing. He had a huge knee brace on but he was Out there running. So that’s a start I suppose. I’m hoping to see a fellow south Louisiana guy make it. And I know Coach Guidry gotta be rooting for him too.

Donno’s guy yesterday said he saw Fletcher in a full boot using a foot cart to keep all pressure off it. He also said is was Lisfranc and there’s no timeline essentially. What I don’t get is why Fletcher is still 100% no weight unless he only went through surgery in January. And if that’s the case, why the delay?
Also said that Citizen goes through all the workouts but wears a super strength brace, possibly because he’s still scared to re-injure it. But the result is that no one knows if he’s fully recovered his speed, burst and footwork.
Meanwhile we let Chaney transfer out.
I’m truly scratching my head here and praying for the best.
Good thing we have Parrish, Allen, CJ2, and Lyle

I know, and Wheatley-Humphrey if he comes in at RB. But Parrish is maxed out below the elite level we want, Allen won't be allowed to play if he doesn't block better, CJ2 went down when the DL breathed on him a few months back, and Lyle / CWH are high school seniors. So... ?
Don't get me wrong, I actually like all our guys and think they could all contribute. But where's your Alpha every down back? On a leg wheely and/or in a titanium knee brace, apparently. I've learned with the Canes you hope for the best but pray the coaches plan for the worst.
We need a portal back for sure…just to be safe.
Some fans love the logo but not the actual Hurricanes on the field smh
Kid suffered an injury that ended careers just a couple of decades ago.
All parties in this situation are doing it right. He’s been through **** as an athlete that wants to see the field and compete. We should all be rooting for him.
Good read, thanks!
