This is a sensitive topic because it involves a kids future and his scholarship chances. By all accounts the kid is a good student and has college offers and interests. These college coaches are watching closely and paying attention to his status. AS A AN EX ATHLETE in more than one sport, injury is a mentally crippling and physically crippling experience. The kid wanted to play and I am sure the family and his doctor did due diligence before he got cleared and Jake WOULD NOT LET HIM PLAY WITHOUT THE PROPER CHANNELS BEING CLEARED.
Injury is a part of all sports and there are more than a dozen scenarios that can explain his injury. He was rusty, there was an m&m on the floor, he could have returned too early, anxiety, he had too much adrenaline. Whatever. Now is the time to wish him a speedy recovery and hope he can get back on the court and get that scholarship and help his team win.
I mean that is keeping it positive from an ADLUTS standpoint. Thats the way I see it.
