Mag Surgery

[RUBigJ]

Has Mag had knee surgery yet?

 

[richthedentist]

yes believe it was done sometime in late February so best scenario to me is he is ready for Decemember Big 10 action guys are coming back in 9 months know with the brace on of course

I recall a report that his surgery was scheduled for February 23rd....

If it helps, I would be willing to donate a knee. I have two and I've heard you can live with just one.

Best case is ready for the start of the season. Recovery times have shortened. Ready by December should be expected. Anything later than that would be unfortunate

Poor kid can't catch a break with all the injuries. Hope he recovers quick.

 

[DJ Spanky]

Given the top notch training staff, he should be ready to go in October, probably not 100% until December/January.

I don't remember exactly when Caleb had his procedure, but it took him some time in the offseason to work his way back. Obviously every athlete is different, but I think fans should be patient with this. More important, Mag should be patient with this.

I wonder if Mags injury is gonna effect OOC scheduling. If they think Mag will miss significant time early season I wonder if they’ll avoid good teams again.

That’s been the MO with or without him. We need to bump that up

Seems like he'll miss the August trip overseas, I wonder if he can go along and not play.

Mag being a high motor guy. Won't rush onto the floor to quickly. Id be ok even if he took a redshirt

I hope so. That would suck for him, but they probably don’t want to interrupt his rehab.

I agree.. I hope he can get back to 100%.. Sometimes joint flexibility or mobility can be affected to some degree after ACL repair, and the type of game he plays can be affected more by a slight decrease in mobility and explosiveness... He could be more prone to additional injury if he comes back too soon, and his high motor manner of play can put extra stress on the previously injured area as well. Don't rush it.
