Man, that's such a tragedy for the kid. When a door gets slammed shut on a kid's dreams and aspirations, it can be devastating. But often times another door opens to something the kid never considered. Here's hoping that happens for McKenzie.
Exactly & agree 100% with ya Brad..As has already been stated he's blessed just to keep his leg below the knee with his horrendous injury..I feel bad for him. Hopefully he can recover and continue to play. At worst I hope he can walk and run without pain even if he can't play again...
Not trying to be too graphic, but I haven't seen any news on what actually happened. Did the bone break the skin? Was his knee dislocated (resulted in the weird angle after the injury) or was that because his femur bone broke above his knee (which is what I orginally thought)?That stinks. I feel bad for the kid. I knew when I saw it live that it was bad and even said it looked "Theisman bad".
His entire lower leg was twisted about 90 degrees out of line, below the knee.Not trying to be too graphic, but I haven't seen any news on what actually happened. Did the bone break the skin?

I'm assuming the damage just game from the extreme force of the helmet to the knee area while it was planted in the turf?
I watched the replay on You Tube and it is awful. His leg is messed up. I'll leave it at that.Not trying to be too graphic, but I haven't seen any news on what actually happened.

Saw that after play.His entire lower leg was twisted about 90 degrees out of line, below the knee.
I never saw a replay (ABC chose not to show it), but I rewound and could tell anything about it from that angle. Did the YT vid show a different angle?I watched the replay on You Tube and it is awful. His leg is messed up. I'll leave it at that.
No but you can tell the leg is really messed up. No need to show anything up close.Saw that after play.
