I am going to advocate that everyone remember the phrase "what goes around comes around" before you post on this thread

Good stuff! Reps!

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Wonder if Nelson will end up getting reps back there?

 

[SaltyND24]

If USC wasn't already a desirable destination for Isaac...Good Lord...Hope Tre has a speedy recovery though.

 

[NYMIKE6]

Tough blow.... i don't want this to be an excuse when we "wally whoop" that *** this year.....

 

[Senoj13]

I imagine Kiffen is looking up and down his roster for some kid named A. Carlisle

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

Losing Amir is that much more devastating for them. Hopefully his injury isn't the end of a career. (Did not read the article heh)

 

[RuntheBall]

They really have to be bummed about losing Amir now. Have yo feel bad for Tre though, devastating injury, hope he is able to come back, and is able to get a quality education incase he can't.

 

[Irishnuke]

I don't think that it's that big of a blow to them. Kid is a freshman and was probably not going to be a feature back. I guess it hurts their depth more than anything.

 

[IrishLax]

For his sake I REALLY hope Kiffin doesn't kick him off the team to make more scholly room.

If I am remembering correctly I read a while back that Agholor was going to begin his USC career at rb, and am I crazy or is Farmer moving back to rb as well?

I'm sure one of the west coast guys has much more reliable info.

Edit... found this, knew I saw it somewhere.

@Scott_Schrader: Nelson Agholor will begin his USC career at Running Back. "It was his suggestion," Kennedy Polamalu said.

Kiffin.. "Sprinkle some crack on em and let's get the hell outta here."

I completely forgot he chose USC. I'm going to have a nightmare about that tonight

It is a devastating injury for the team, 3 ( 4 w/ Agholor) scholarship running backs on the entire team vs we could possibly have 7 (6 if Cam is still injured). Even the Tre isn't a star he's still a former 4* from mission Viejo.

Yeah, I didn't sleep for about a week after seeing this:

Really wanted him, or at the very least wanted him to go to UF.

As if the young man didn't have enough on his plate, THIS has to be another major concern. Even if they give it a year to see how it heals up, this is an unfortunate reality in some "Big Time" programs.

1. He won't have to worry about that. Kiffy loves the kid, and besides that he was going to be a major contributor and therefore was becoming very high profile, and even Kiffy isn't stupid enough to kick a kid like him to the curb. Tre will be back with the program.

2. This is a HUGE blow for the Trogans. Tre was BALLIN' big-time for them, and he was a revelation for them at tailback. Seriously, everyone was raving about him at RB and the RB coach, after one practice, said there was no way he was letting him go back to LB.

Now they only have McNeal, who is a stud but there are durability issues (by the time he gets to us, who knows how much he'll have in the tank), DJ Morgan, who is a speedster having a good spring but who had a major knee surgery himself and who was in the doghouse all last year (and is another small guy), and Buck Allen, who no one knows a thing about b/c he's always hurt.

One more injury to a Trogan RB and they are in deep, deep trouble...

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

This is the only way the scholarship limit can hurt them.

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

The injury bug is my nightmare.. Tough break for the kid.

 

[ndcoltsfan2010]

Really hope this kid fully recovers. I always hate seeing kids get hurt.

Haha reps for the Dave Chappelle reference. Awesome.
