Blake Countess Done For Year

By Brian — September 2nd, 2012 at 10:07 PM — 245 comments
Filed under:
  • blake countess
  • injuries

100111_SPT_UMich_vs_Minn_MRM

AnnArbor.com

A source close to the team has told me Blake Countess has torn ligaments in his knee and is done for the year.

Countess will get a medical redshirt and be a redshirt sophomore next year; in his stead, Michigan has some hard choices. Courtney Avery was not up to the task on the outside against Alabama. Raymon Taylor and Terry Richardson also got in there, though in the part of the game in which Alabama was just running out the clock. This might mean we see a lot more of Jarrod Wilson in the nickel package. Last night he came in and Michigan moved Thomas Gordon down to the nickelback spot.

Also, hurray!

Countess and Lewan

We learned this team 133 is a long way from 132. If we lose a pillar on each side of the ball, this could be a very long season.

As much as this royally sucks

I tend to be a glass half full type of guy. If Countess was able to make a profound improvement and work his way into the starting lineup last year, who is to say there is not a freshman this year that can make a similar impact as Countess did last year?

Too often

This blog is full of cry baby bull shit!  I came here to share a passion for Michigan football, not bash the coaches for every hick-up along the way.

We played a tough opponent and some guys got hurt.  WTF?

That's football people.

I'm done with this site.

Dee Hart looked pretty athletic after coming back from a major knee injury. Here's hoping Countess can recover like that or better.

Prayers of hope and strength

Prayers of hope and strength to you and your family, Blake.

I can't imaging how disappointed you are, or how hard you have to work to get back to 100%

I only know you will get there, and you will come out the other end of this process an even better and stronger person.

This is not what we needed

This is not what we needed does anyone else think that jt floyd isnt that good of a corner and now countess is out!

At least we will have him for next year.... I also do think that there was alot of calls not made against mich we got called for holding when alabama face masked rawrls. All in all mich is not tough enough for a team like alabama. I give them two years and we will be back on top!

This is a very bad injury.  There's a chance he could never come back with the same speed and agility.  Woolfolk never seemed right again.  I hope this doesn't end up ruining his career.
