? on Maymon's Knee

  • Sorry if this was answered before, but I someone brought this up to me in a discussion about Maymon's health going into next season.

    Because his knee was infected and CCM eventually suggested to medically redshirt him, how sure are we that he will be ready by Fall 2013? Is a knee infection something you can operate on, go in and disinfect? Or is it one of those wacky conditions that you have to simply wait and see on? Meaning, Maymon could potentially not be ready by next season...

    Can someone clarify the recovery process to me? I certainly hope he is back next season to add to the Stokes, McRae, Golden, Hubbs power combo.

    Thanks in advance.

  • I think he was OKed to practice, which means the knee is fine. The question then became, is it worth it because it would take him some time to get in playing shape and the season is already half over? Thus the decision to redshirt so he can play a full year.

    Wes or anyone, please correct me if I'm wrong.
