Everything I am hearing is it is very unlikely he plays against Alabama. Texas very possible. Tennessee very likely.

That is the timeline

I hope he can comeback, but I dunno.......when you break bones? I'll say this......I suspect, these high dollar collegiate football programs prolly have the latest in injury rehab and technology to help athletes recover quickly.

LSU will need all hands on deck to beat the mighty Crimson Tide.

No thanks


And how do you know he hasn't been doing cardio?
You got the inside scoop?

Injuries are starting to pile up on him but that doesn't take away from the talent that he is. The production on the field doesn't lie. The impact he has on the game when he is out there doesn't lie. Really weird to say time to move on from a True Tiger who works his arse off. Injuries aside players like Whit aren't the norm in College Football anymore.

Do you think that running is the only type of cardio workout someone can do?

He got surgery on 9/28 and the "optimistic recovery timeline was put at 4-6 weeks". Today is 10/28 (basically exactly 4 weeks from when he got surgery). The Bama game will put him right at 6 weeks post surgery. If he practices at all during the lead up week to Bama, I could potentially see him play some limited snaps vs them, but if not, Texas or Tennessee seem like the more likely return spots.

Whit is a great player, but it would be safe to assume that with the surgery and rehab he still may be a step or half step slow compared to when he was full earlier year.

Do we really want to break him in against Keelon who is a twitchy athlete when he may be coming back into things?

Texas may be better because Arch is not as dynamic even though he runs a good bit.
