May be thinking about Garrison Hearst. Both played for Georgia. Hearst jacked his leg up in Atlanta and had a long road back.

Ralph Kiner.

Back injury cut off a great career in its prime.

Sophomore year
he came back fine , was having a great season, then tore the other knee up in a far worse/gruesome injury.




Yep. Freshman year has around 1,600 combined total yards I think 19 TDs.

He was actually outpacing those stats when he got hurt as a sophomore.

The Grant Hill and Penny Hardawy teams could have been Pippen and Jordan 2.0
