'12 VA OLB Ken Ekanem (Virginia Tech Signee)

[rtrn2glory]

good luck to him in his recovery...he's going to really find out who's interested in him now, it'll be interesting to see who cools on him.

Rumor has it he tore his ACL and meniscus

Not a rumor any more. 4-5 month recovery, says he will redshirt wherever he goes, obviously.

 

[IrishLax]

Oh snap that sucks. Worse than previously reported out here.

Is there any doubt that he won't commit to Notre Dame now?

That's what I was thinking.

Normally I'd agree. But with 5 days left until NSD? Going to be hard to win a kid that fast who has never seen campus. We'll see though.

Niklas took his official to SB last year on the 28th. Didnt stop him from commiting on NSD even though it was his first visit.

 

[frankygoes69]

He is Irish!

 

[Damion704]

?

 

[Damion704]

Why put something like that if its not even true? Really?

 

[frankygoes69]

Like what? Are you asking me? I guess I should have added IMO. Does that help you out? Really? Or are you asking about someone else? Really?

 

[Damion704]

Thanks

Good point!

Did his mom say he is NOT gong to VT?

Huh? No. I don't think so unless I missed that. I think she said he's not going to UVa. VT is in his top 4.

(Although why any parent would send their child to the Collegiate Gun Violence Capitol is beyond me).

Ok, thanks. I knew it was one of the virginia schools

Sometimes all it takes is 1 visit, no matter what time of year it is.

I still want this kid bad

 

[Riddickulous]

He's explosive.

 

[NYIrish14]

Kid can flat out play football...is his injury really that bad?

 

[arrowryan]

He's explosive.

Very explosive and he had some good hits on the quarterback

 

[woolybug25]

Just getting this kid's thread into my usercp... nothing to see here.

 

[PLACforever]

Anyone know how surgery went?

"Ekanem suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee during a playoff game. Surgery is scheduled for Dec. 29. "
