re: We don't talk enough about how absolutely bizarre this Myles Brennan injury situation is

I don't find it odd at all. Sometimes the initial diagnosis of an injury is either wrong or incomplete. From what I gather, the medical folks at LSU initially thought it was strained muscles in his abdomen that was later upgraded to several muscle tears in some uncommon places (hip) etc. I feel that this was such a rare and complicated injury that the medical team was and still is unable to give accurate timelines of recovery.

There was an article or tweet last week that mentioned that he is pretty much ready to go and is just waiting on medical clearance. I don't know how accurate that assessment was but it at least appears to be a hopeful prognosis.

Rare injuries such as this are difficult to diagnose and even more difficult to forecast if and when he will be 100% good to go.
