Hoping for the best here, but who takes his place if he can't go ? Mosley or Moses ?

I have found a few sources online that indicate a time-frame of about 2 weeks for this type of hamstring injury (no tear). Assuming Alabama uses Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, he could be back for the game, and at close to 100%.

Yep, people gotta understand that timeframe is for normal healthy adults not folks in peak physical condition receiving spare-no-expense medical procedures to assist in healing.

Actually, that study was of college athletes, which is why the recovery time was shorter than that expected by the gen pop. For most of us, 4 weeks for grade 1 and 6-8 weeks for grade 2.

I think that we will see Miller in the game. But remember that I keep thinking that we will see Diggs. :tongue:

Miller is a senior. He’s gonna kill him self to get back especially since he’s from South Carolina.

Pulled hamstring is just a rest deal from what I know...bet they have him in some space age stuff like Tua.
They do! Trust me, they didn't waste any time in working on him.

Let me rephrase ..... They didn't waste any time in starting to work on him. Cutting edge technology with our medical staff is a top notch operation.

ESPN is reporting he will play, not sure where the info is coming from. The PRP therapy is great stuff. Dr’s used it in my shoulder with great results! Hope his recovery is miraculous.

In an ESPN interview just now, Saban said Miller is questionable to be able to play in the final game.

Our medical staff is the best in the country, IMO. It all began with Dr Andrews, and now led by Dr Cain. Andrews was a pioneer in sports medicine. It's amazing what they do.
