Apparently it is a partial tear and he will only be out 4-6 weeks. Read: no surgery.

Partial tears are tricky... I had one (technically multiple) in the alterior ligaments in my left ankle that were supposed to heal by themselves in a matter of weeks. A couple years later... I still have pain and can't run like I used to.

Hope this kid makes a full recovery. If I was advising him I'd tell him screw coming back for the playoffs, get some arthroscopic knee surgery and suture up that partial tear. Slightly longer recover and requires a lot more PT... but you're much more likely to be ready to rock by next fall. Then again, I think I have much worse self-healing joints than most.

Lyons is now "gently used" or has been "rubbed" but you have to remember that "rubbin's racing!" a la Days Of Thunder.

Wayne Lyons.....Come on down!

Thats right, when Cruise was normal and Nicole didn't look like an alien, just a great lass.

Pretty sure that Wayne would have caught that interception at the end of the game that Hayseed dropped/took away from Walls. Good effort though.

I know this doesn't count for much, but I think it's interesting that scout has Lyons' interest in Florida as "low." Rivals and ESPN both have Florida among his favorites though...

Last I checked there wasn't any hayseed on our roster. Harrison Smith had a hell of a game. All the safties (except one play by Slaughter) were awesome. When you play a team as physical as Pitt, and you out-hit them, you are doing something right. Smith and Motta hammered that fullback.

Wayne Lyons

6'0", 190 lbs.

Safety

Dillard, Florida

Wayne Lyons is the number four safety in the country, and recently decided that Michigan is back in his top list with Stanford, UCLA, Florida, Tennessee, and Nebraska.

I started talking to the coaches from Michigan a lot more, and realized that they do have a true need for me. I talk to coach Dews most of the time. He tells me how it's a good place, and that I would really fit in.

Lyons has already been to Notre Dame and UCLA, he also has a visit already scheduled to Nebraska at the end of October. That leaves two spots left for an official visit, and he's still not sure if Michigan will get that visit.

I'm thinking about making that one of my official visits. They're not necessarily on the outside, they're making it in there. It's just because I've been talking to the other schools for awhile now and I've already seen the other campuses. They're coming on though.

It seems like it would be a good idea to visit Michigan if he has already seen the other campuses. Michigan is making up ground with him, and I have a good feeling about him taking a visit.

Shameless stolen from mgoblog.

I was thinking the same thing. Do they know something we don't or are they overly pessimistic? I thought we had the inside track on this guy until recently.

If this was taken from a Michigan blog I wouldn't be that concerned. I'm sure it wasn't an accident they left out Notre Dame. Considering he used one of his official visits on ND I think its safe to say we are still under consideration.

I think with everything being said by so many different sources, that this kid is just a wild card at this point. It's so hard to get a read on him from his own comments and the "experts."

I think you are right. At this point it is anyone's guess and is a total crap shoot.

Not in top 5 per Rivals board... not sure if accurate

See you in Florida

That sucks. I was really wanting this guy and thought he would make an immediate impact. A few months back I was really liking our chances with him..., but it just seems lately he isn't as interested as he once was. I hope he doesn't go to Florida..., anywhere but there.
