Troy Woolfolk Is Probably Pretty Hurt

doom Time to dig out the "just jump already" tag: this forum thread may be annoyingly phrased but does

  1. indicate Troy Woolfolk just got badly injured, possibly in a season-ending fashion
  2. come from a guy with a two year old account and a track record of dropping information people are skeptical about.

Also apparently Sam Webb has it on Scout.

Current corner depth chart:

1. JT Floyd / random freshman
2. DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

I guess Woolfolk can redshirt. So there's that.

UPDATE:

Statement from Michigan Head Coach Rich Rodriguez

Troy Woolfolk suffered a lower body injury during practice this afternoon and was transported to U-M Hospital with our team physician. We can’t comment further due to medical privacy rights.

UPDATE II: Getting reports it is a dislocated ankle, which is in all likelihood season-ending.

If he could just miss the first half of the season that would be non-conference (including what should still be easy Ws against Umass and BGSU)  and Indiana (who is terrible) this at worst would cost us one game (the chances it swings both ND or Uconn don't strike me as too high) and probably not even that.

If he misses the second half against better QBs this could easily cost us a game, maybe 2 or 3.

A compound fracture heals much faster than a bad (high) ankle sprain.  I am however in agreement with you that everyone should just calm down until we hear something definitive.

an ankle dislocation will not heal quickly, and a bad sprain for a cornerback makes them unable to cut and change directions.  not good news, but not the end of the season either.  Im expecting some lower UFR numbers in the secondary now
