If true, it's sad. But there comes a point where you just have to hang it up, and I think this is that point. Surely he's got his degree by now.

plantar fasciitis. It will make you cry just to walk. There is no really good prognosis for that. Stretching, exercise, and lots of ice and heat. Just plain damn miserable.

Hope it doesn't hurt his chances in the NBA. I've always liked Steele, even if I hate Alabama.

i always hate hearing college players having to hang it up due to injury. mostly because it is usually nothing they did wrong, yet their talents are taken away.
some dumbass selling on the side or passing fake $20s...F em, thats fine if they never play again, they did that **** to themselves. but injuries like this just flat out suck.

...and Gottfried has to be dead to rights by now.

Gottfried will be fine. After all, he has that Elite 8 appearance on his resume. That will come in handy when he interviews for the West Alabama job.

Hate to hear that. Dude would've been a lottery pick, probably top 5, after his freshman year, but chose to came back. Now he'll be lucky to ever get a shot as an undrafted free agent.
