What has happened to Travis Blanks???


May 31, 2015, 4:51 AM

I just checked out our two deep summer depth chart and I do not see travis blanks listed anywhere. This kid was a ball hawk and great open field tackler before he was injured. Was his injury that significant?

I just read an article where he had to have a 2nd knee surgery...terrible news for an outstanding young man. Post did say he should be 100% for fall but will miss all spring practices. If we can get him back to near 100% or what he displayed his freshman year. Our Secondary will be a huge strength

2 knee injuries later. Probably will never be the same player we knew saw. Don't think ton was ever the same kind of player, but he still got drafted.

I hope he can bounce back against the odds. The kid really earned my respect his freshman year. Fast instinctive and always in on the play!

Stewards injuries were a lot worse, and he bounced back fine his senior year. Fortunately we have a ton of talented depth here.

I agree. Depth is always great but this kid could cover the tightend, slot reciever and play in the box as a hybrid outside lineback/saftey. His versitality is needed. He and Bouleware would be all over the field lol

How were tony's worse. Both have 2 torn ACL. I think Tony played well but don't think we will ever see the player Tony could have been.

toney had the potential to be head over heels a better linebacker than Stephone anthony (pre injuries). That's not taking anything away from anthony, it just goes to how atheltic, powerful, and talented in general toney was.
