Tega in good spirits. Surgery went great. Back to full health in 4 months, by May. He definitely needs to pick either football or basketball. (Injury would be less likely if he had not been playing two high impact sports at once, handling school, recruiting, and learning football for first time this fall.)

Another Classic Les Miles Quote: "Les Miles told me the other day he likes the fact Tega has only played football for four months in his life," Edgewood Academy football coach Bobby Carr told AL.com. "He said you can't teach a kid to run like a deer and have an NFL body. But he said he can teach him the game of football."


For those who doubt, Laquon Treadwell, who suffered a worse injury is already back pushing a sled and running on a treadmill after less than 3 months. He posted a pic pushing a sled and video running on a treadmill yesterday.

Tega was playing 2 high impact sports at the same time, football for the first time this fall. Not good. With today's technology that LSU and most top sports organizations have, the total stress on the body is monitored daily. This is done with the Catapult Sports system and also head trauma is measured with the special mouthpieces that LSU wears by i1 Biometrics (the only school in the nation to have this). The results from both show that a lot of conventional workouts, 2-a-days, do more harm than good and without adequate recovery time injuries and concussions go up. That is why full workouts past Wed impact Saturday performance, and why 40 yd dashes build more breakaway acceleration than 100 yd runs: some players running bursts over 23 mph! HUNH O's and D's (ALA, OR, etc.) train while constantly moving. Players are held out of practice and games whenever stress totals exceed a max limit and given recovery time to prevent performance decline or injury.

After the Rueben Foster targeting hit and celebration that was not called, I wonder if LF7 had a concussion or other injury as he was missing in action for a while. Foster was wearing a now extinct "Cowboy Collar" because of how he launches headfirst trying to knock players out of the game.

I think he ends up here Auburn will get Cowart and Jefferson and Bana is full and may not offer.
