Rumor: Bryan Mone Broken Leg and Possibly Out for Year

Submitted by poppinfresh on August 12th, 2015 at 4:16 PM

Rumors about... can anyone confirm?

Edit: Webb saying its an Ankle, whether or not its season/redshirt TBD

which gets Taco on the field more, who can also play. Hurts depth, and to the extent that he was ahead of the other guys, hurts performance. But the team can withstand the fall of this one dominoe on the DL. Another injury would put them in the danger zone. Obviously still hoping it's not true.

That's a hell of a lot of difference there. Damn, really thought Mone was going to have a breakout year. And he was the only battleship 2-gap type NT UM had.

Not really - depending on when in October he meant, that could be a 4 week swing. I say redshirt him unless we've got a killer season going and he's totally ready or he's just way ahead of schedule.

for the bone to heal and then a butt load of time to rehab the atrophied muscles. So we're looking at 1st week of October to be out of his cast I'm guessing at least a month of rehab. Now you're at the first week of November and he's still trying to get game ready. Life can suck, he's not going to like it, but I'm thinking he takes the season off.

But what I am saying is do you have a link to him saying this? Did you hear it on scout? Where/how did you find this out?

He is one of the insiders on scout, so I am pretty sure he has the right info.....

Mone seems like a contributor for sure, but at least this is a position where we have good depth already. Next man up. We have other quality guys at DT that could include Henry, Hurst, Glasgow, Godin, and Wornley. Good luck to the young man. I'll be curious to see some specifics of the injury.

Problem is that there's only one real NT there. Man, going into spring, UM was solid at NT: Glasgow, Pipkins, Mone. Now they'll have to run a lot of 3-tech at the nose.

Everytime something like this happens, why is the first reaction to think the world is ending? Should they pack it up for 2015 now? I mean, it's terrible for Bryan Mone if he broke his leg. Take a chill.

Could really be worse...could've got his jaw broken by a sucker punch from a fellow Wolverine.

That sucks, but hopefully he recovers. I assume he red shirts unless there is some miraculous recovery.

This really, really, really sucks, but at least it happened now and not the week of the Utah game. We've got a few weeks to get everyone else ready now.

Gotta wish a fully and speedy recovery to Mone. Really, really unfortunate that this happened to him.
