Poor kid - needs to catch a break.

OK you were first. What’s the story?

I couldn't get the link to copy in. Done with another ACL tear.

Needs to hang it up unfortunately. Kid had a lot of potential before his injuries.

He’s a huge a human and unfortunately couldn’t stay healthy to see what he could be. Good luck in the next chapters.

Will make one hell of a State Farm agent

I honestly don't think he's done playing at NU, as unbelievable as that sounds. The NCAA seems willing to give guys extra years for any reason at all now and he should give another position a try before just giving up forever. He's a great athlete but too tall to play OT. It is leverage against strong DEs that kills his knees, not running or jumping.

He needs to be done. It may not be "nice" but Rhule also needs to make that known to him as well. If Teddy wants to play again, it'll have to be somewhere else. It is time to focus on our future players and stop giving 3rd, 4th, 5th chances to injury prone guys who were never really good to begin with (for Teddy, since his 1st injury). No disrespect. Thank you, Teddy, for literally sacrificing your body for the program year after year. But it is time. It's been time.

Maybe he should try out for basketball Fred can always use another big man

This is correct. He needs to be done at NU. Elsewhere, maybe he can find an opportunity.

Yeah his body just isn't letting him do what he wants. During the game I saw his reaction and it looked like someone with a season ending injury, and of course ACL pops into your mind based on his history, but the actual body movement looks like nothing should have happened. No awkward movements or strange forces on his legs.

I wonder if his career would have been different playing guard, where he did'nt have to bend his legs on that huge frame so much keeping a rush end at bay

Just too long to play inside. Freakish athlete at that size as a freshman but knee injuries were almost inevitable for a young guy doing the kind of biomechanical things you have to do playing football.
