Starting MLB for Tennessee out with injury

[LagrangeJacket]

According to VolQuest.com, the Vols [sic] starting linebacker is hurt once again and will not only miss the team’s Labor Day clash with Georgia Tech, but could be out an extended amount of time. The report says Kirkland suffered a ‘non-contact knee injury’ on Friday and the full extent of the damage is still being determined by the school.

Torn meniscus, out 4-6 weeks. I hate it for him.

Yeah, that sucks for the kid. Hate to see injuries like that anytime, especially before the season starts.

Yeah he's missed a lot of time the past year or so. He's a big talent and big loss for us. Especially facing a rushing attack like you guys have.

Tennessee must have been practicing cuts

I hope you're right.

I did it.

Well they said it was pretty much a non contact injury so I imagine you probably were responsible.

I hope he bounces back quickly and has one hell of a game against Georgia.

Hate this for the guy.

This is at the heart of why the ncaa should hammer schools like unc. Most of these guys won't see the nfl, even immensely talented guys. You can't predict injuries. Cheating guys out of a degree as a backup is the ultimate tragedy.

4-6 weeks isn't as bad as getting taken out for the entire season after chop blocks...That's how this works right?

Isn't going to UT kind of cheating a guy out of a degree to begin with?

I've give UT credit for not strong arming Dobbs into a do nothing degree. They don't typically stand in the way of their players' interests, be that aerospace engineering or armed robbery.

Was Dobbs an aerospace engineer major or something?

Yes. He's actually a rocket scientist.

Yes. He's actually a rocket scientist.

My son is an aerospace engineer. I bet his degree is better than Dobb's degree.

That's great for your family and your son. What round of the NFL draft was he selected in?
