pffft.. first thing I did after reading the injury was check the calendar to see if we play them within the next two months..

Not that I'm glad that he's injured.. but.. I'm also not sad about the fact that we won't have to face him in January.. and it's not like my well wishes will make him recover any sooner.

Injuries are part of the game and if your team gets a break by facing a team without their star player, that's one thing. I know we've been screwed like that before.

I just don't think that an individual award, like POY is that important when you're talking about severe injuries. Also, if you can't win the award when everyone's at their best and healthy, the award is a little hollow. You get the whole, "The only reason 'x player' won is because 'y player' was hurt."

sorry to offend you alice, I never said "good I'm glad he's injured," there were already a few, "damn that sucks," I wasn't gonna add some more of that, was just saying he was in the driver's seat for big ten POY and now its up for grabs

It could have been much worse. Those are always scary, so all things considered he has reason to feel lucky.

Assuming he heals well, the kid has a bright future. Hopefully he can come back later in the year. Some time shortly after the Michigan game would be ideal.

Sucks for him and OSU. Sounds painful.

Hopefully he recovers and gets back....after they play us both times. I won't lie, I'm not dissapointed that he's not gonna be on the court against us.

In all seriousness, I hope he's alright.

I would never wish this upon anyone.

However, my brain tells me that if this happened to Manny, OSU fans would be celebrating.

So, get better Evan, but OSU - still fuck off.

That is awful. Hopefully he can make a speedy recovery. Between him, Manny and Battle those were the guys who were going to carry the conference this year. Too bad this had to happen.

i really hope he recovers and is well...he's lucky he didn't land on his neck... hate on ohio state all you want (and i do too), but he is a heck of a player and fun to watch (when not playing michigan)...

as much as i hate osu, turner is one of their players that i really respect. he is really good and fun to watch. I would never wish this kind of injury on anyone, whether they go to osu or not. That just looks like it was unbelievably painful, and now he's going to have to sit out 8 weeks of what was shaping up to be a very good season for him. What a shame.
