Says he should be 100% by July.

This would normally hurt a team, but our backfield is loaded. Most people had already forgotten just how good Kenyan Drake really is.

Disappointing news!!! He was one of the freshman I was most wanting to see in game action against our defense.

I guess he'll be a big mystery to us and our opponents until he lines up this fall in a game!

This is the same bone that Kenny Bell broke if I'm remembering it right.
DH should be good to go for the fall.

It happens. Bone breaks a usually better and easier to heal than ligament damage.

He got most of the spring work in, now just go heal up.

Ugh. The only silver lining is that it occurred toward the end of spring camp, so he got some work in and still has time to recover for the season. Hope he has a full and quick recovery. RTR!!

that much more time to study film and the playbook

I guess that means Drake will get a few more carries this Saturday
Drake and Yeldon are really the only healthy scholarship RBs. I doubt Dee or JF do much, if anything, in the game since they are still recovering.

By all accounts, he is a hard worker and should be a great player. We were so looking forward to seeing him in the spring game.

Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery, DH!
