MC is doing better, still has numbness in his hands, he will be going to class today and then taking the day/night to be with family and friends in Roanoke. Seems to be doing ok. just passing it along.

Great to hear.

Thanks for the update.

still having numbness in his hands... is that as bad as it sounds or just to be expected and should go away with no long-term issues?

glad he's ok. scared me for a minute lastnight

 

[Lumbee09]

That was a scary moment last night. I've been to almost every VT home game for the past decade and cannot recall an ambulance ever coming on the field (several guys carted directly off, but never an ambulance). Glad to hear he's doing better and hope he sees the field again soon.

not a doctor so take this fwiw but my cousin had an injury pretty similar to MC's (my cousin was actually air lifted from the field) anyway he had no movement for about an hour, then could move but no feeling, then feeling started to come back and he was fine in a couple weeks. Not sure of the proper name or if this is even what MC is going through but the doctor for my cousin called it spinal shock.

 

[robV703]

IIRC the injury was a cervical neck sprain. That's (I think) similar to the whiplash injury people in car accidents get.

 

[wildturkey]

Definitely good news

Cole won't be playing against BC. I'm glad he's okay but I'm also glad that Frye and Riley are getting in there and getting experience. Cole's upside looks very limited to me

That's not abnormal for this type of injury. It's something to watch, but it's not a red flag right from my understanding.

Yea he is being held out, smart move by the coaching staff, a players safety is more important than a game of football.

Losing Manning hurts. Better hope Kendall is all he's cracked up to be, because he may have to be out nickel corner next season.
