An “achilles issue”

Not ideal

That’s a tough one

Thankfully, Godwin is back in the mix

I had one of these in high school. That thing could haunt him for a year.

What about Dellinger??

Achilles sounds like done for the season

Not necessarily. I'm no doctor, but my understanding is the severity can vary. Torn achilles tendon? Done for year, may never regain the athleticism you had before. But it's also possible to have a low grade achilles strain that can heal in 2-3 weeks.

There is also Achilles tendinitis. Can be very painful but full recovery is normal.

Sevyn Banks?

Likely out the rest of regular season, maybe makes A&M

My Achilles took 9 months for me to walk normal and I still can’t run

I used to do triathlons and fought Achilles and calf issue. Only thing that helped was horse lineament. No kidding. Smelled awful but it worked

If Bech or Nabers enters transfer port because we been cowing to BOUTTE this year I’ll be upset.
