HMP likely out 2-4 weeks with a knee injury

[HoosierAloha 30,017]

Wasn't one of Mo Creek's injuries a dislocated knee cap or something similar?

Let's hold off assuming until we hear otherwise. could be a bunch of hooey

Yeah, the knee cap can slide out of place. It's called subluxation. Normally it pops back into place with pressure and knee extension. These typically get better in a few days. This is not a true dislocation. This can be prevented with knee braces.

Subluxation is a minor dislocation that can be fairly simply fixed, but the knee cap can completely dislocate from the groove on the joint on the front of the knee. This is where the 6-8 weeks would come into play. (All according to this website I used earlier)

Agree. All depends on how much of the joint tissue was damaged, but yes can be several weeks of recovery. In my experience, if it's strictly the knee cap then it should get better in less than a week.

Hopefully nothing happened, but if it did, it's minor like that.

Not good if true, but I need to hear it from a more reliable source than whoever this guy is. 

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Let's hope and pray this is not true.

[The Baby Bull 280]

Need to hear from a more reliable source. Otherwise I feel like chicken little.

His definition of "very shortly" might be different…but it's been over 5 hours since he tweeted that and we've heard nothing from any of our insiders. 

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

With our luck lately----anybody else got that sick to the stomach feeling?

 

Nervously awaiting news.

For what it's worth:

 

Peegs Premium lets the non-subscribers read each post and thread's title, and it's sometimes a pretty good way to see what the primary topics of discussion are, including those that Rabjohns is highlighting.

 

Thankfully, there is absolutely nothing about any form of injury in there.

 

EDIT: Shucks - guess it's a real issue.

I had this happen to me when I was younger and it took about that long to get back to 100%. If its true hopefully the fact that he's in great shape can help him get back sooner.

Well there we go.

[Rookie33 932]

Well there we go.

Was hoping I was wrong. Time for Emmit, Colin, April and Burton to step up. Wishing DD a speedy recovery as well...

Creek actually cracked his kneecap. If I recall correctly he had issues/injuries with both knees over the course of his career at IU. Both took time to recover, but he did appear to recover fully from the injuries.

 

I’ve been one who has been critical of HMP's play, but hate to hear of any kid getting hurt. We’re already pretty thin at the 5. HMP, Emmitt and April - and now 2 of the 3 are injured to some point. Then there's Hartman - what he lacks in athleticism, he more than makes up for with hustle. Maybe MSB can get some time, too.

[djsalway 4,161]

Big injury for us, but we are in a little bit of an easy stretch of our B1G schedule.

[Hoosiers26 44]

Does this mean April and burton are going to get some minutes...?
