While I feel for Lattimore, I sure would like to see as much support for one of our players.

Exactly. I definitely hope Robinson gets back to playing as soon as possible, but he'll play again. Marcus is done for his career.

I must have missed all the coots' posts showing their concern for 1 of our players too. I'm real sure they actually showed any love our way. (that's sarcasm for those that can't understand chit).

Just to let you know, this really isn't something you should be bitter about. I really don't see this as a slight by the coots at all. Just worried about their boy.

Never. And you never will.
Have class about the situation, and pray for the kid if you think magic works, but there's no need to keep going on and on about him.

Sorry that this has ruined your day. If it'll make you feel better (and it probably will), Marcus' day was a lot sh!ttier.

Well that just shows you who the better fan base is. We wish Marcus well and show we are a great fanbase. Let the SC fans and those show their hatred if they want. That's their business.

has a future.
Completes his degree, I'm assuming USuCk will honor the scholarship, and goes on to a profession/career like the rest of us.
From what I hear about him, he well spoken and overall just a good person. Based on that and his education, his future is still very bright.

Nice jab. But you do know that if a player is unable to play due to injury the school can keep them on scholarship without it counting against the teams 85 limit, right?

And just for the record, and since I didn't know Robinson was injured...I wish him a speedy recovery. Hate to see any kid hurt playing the sport they love.

I imagine with the work ethic he has to excell athletically he will do well in anything he attempts. And I dont care what any Dr says I would put anything past him on recovery. I've seen too many cases where athletes were told they could never do this or that again and the Dr. be proven wrong

It's football and we see injuries everyday. I can honestly
Oct 28, 2012, 10:58 AM

Say that I've never seen an injury like Lattimores. Speaking for myself, he is the one coot I respect and he doesn't deserve to have a possible career ending injury. He always supported Boyd when he wasn't on his A game and he was defending Sammy and supporting him when he got into trouble. The look on that young mans face after the play is something ill never forget. I will be honest, you probably wouldn't see this kind of concern and support for a guy such as swearinger. Lattimore reminds me of Spiller and men with that type of character do not deserve devastating injuries like that. Just my two cents

However, as Tiger fans we should support our injured players more than we do, don't you think? I put both addresses up as a courtesy to those wanting them.

Just like myself. You also have to keep in mind ML was coming off of a season ending injury from last year. It sucks when bad things happen to good people. Lattimore doesn't deserve that.

Career ending. The is a difference in severity when fans of all schools go to your team's board to post well wishes. This kid may never walk right again.
Take your orange glasses off for a few minutes.

But I don't remember many (including myself) wishing Robinson, or any of our other players injured this year, a speedy recovery.
I just think we should do better for all of these kids.

That was the worst injury I have ever witnessed. It was heartbreaking. At the same time, we should be encouraging our injured players as well as Marcus. Don't you think?

Any injury is unfortuntate but I think most would agree

that:
1. Robinson's injury does not appear career threatening.
2. Lattiimore is a much higher profile player than Robinson.
