According to the Matt Fortuna article posted here, http://www.irishenvy.com/forums/201...shad-kinlaw-notre-dame-verbal.html#post678726

, it was his fibula.

From a Physical Terrorist's perspective what's the rehab/recovery prospects for such an injury. Do they get back to 100%? Everytime I hear fibula I have visions of LT rearranging Joe Theismann's anatomy. I realize that was a compound break of both the tibia and fibula.

At least Kinlaw has the seemingly requisite ND recruit injury behind him. Best wishes for a successful and healthy senior campaign.

I know it's early and anyone recruit can flip. I like when we grab kids early with all the potential in the world and not being heavily recruited yet. I feel like us jumping first stands big in their eyes. Same reason I think we get The Admiral!

Welcome to the family my man! Onward to a big season!!!

Dude, gross..

Oh, and ****ing awesome on the commit!

Broken it before. Not a big deal. 4-6 weeks in a cast. 2-3 months of physical therapy. I was back at full speed in a few months

Yeah I thought he was down for the count when that mail cart hit him but I was wrong.....he was determined during rehab and he came back stronger than ever.

Fibula not a bad break at all. Sometimes if it is not displaced you can even walk on it within days. It is a non-weight bearing bone to my understanding.

For the most part. It does have WB forces going through it via the hamstrings and ankle musculature that applies forces to it. But you are correct in that you can be weight bearing very acutely.

Thats kinda odd to just break that bone. Most of the time you get the tib-fib break.

More than likely if it was just that bone it was in a twisting movement or change of direction movement. Actually had a spiral fracture on this bone. Hurt like hell but the other injuries I had with it were much worse. Doc said it was clean and I could have been in a walking boot within a week.

If this kid does not see the field early on at DB, I say use him on "O" a bit as well. Could you see a backfield with Golson taking snaps and having Wood on one side and Kinlaw on the other, Daniels and Brown on the outside, and Neal in the slot and throw in Koyack at TE. I'm calling it now... "SHOCK AND AWE".

Also, one thing that caught my eye on his tapes was the one very important piece of the offense that we just don't have with Tommy taking snaps. When you see that pocket open up in front of Rashad and he has a clear lane with only a MLB to beat for a 20+ yeard run, man does it get exciting to know that we are adding that element to our offense, be it Everett, Gunner, or Andrew. Not knocking Tommy, but he just does not bring that element to this offense and that's not his fault.

Seems to be mass confusion on what he broke:

Bob Wieneke ‏ @bobwienekeisr

A couple Rashad Kinlaw notes from his hometown paper. Missed final 5 games with broken tibia. Went 31-53 for 315 yds and 5 TDs last season.

According to an article on ISD he ran an electronic 4.41 as a sophomore at a Rutgers camp.... and in 32 snaps on defense as a junior (I think shortened season due to injury, right?) he had 6 interceptions.

seems like a pretty average CB prospect to me

Hopefully he sees plenty of CB time in his senior year without the injury bug creepin up on him.
