Montgomery and Anderson in back to back weeks. But the brunt of this is softened by the fact that we still have Tardy and others at RB who can run the ball. It hurts, but it is at least manageable.

What are the rules on medical redshirts? I know he is already a redshirt JR but I remember this topic coming up after Rogers went down early last year.

I thought run of the mill ACL injury when I heard knee injury. After reading about it more, this could’ve been way worse for Montgomery and his future. It’s heartbreaking to lose such an exciting player to a fluke injury but I’m glad that he will recover and be healthy.

The last thing I’d want is a kid to lose a leg because of a football game

Redshirted one year, played in a backup role the next, sat out his transfer season last year, and barely gets to play this season. I hope for his sake as much as ours that he comes back and has a monster senior year.

this could be career threatening. Acute compartment syndrome is apparently no joke.

It may take several hours for acute compartment syndrome to develop. Within the muscle compartment, swelling and/or bleeding creates pressure on capillaries and nerves. When the pressure in the compartment exceeds the blood pressure within the capillaries, the capillaries collapse. This disrupts the blood flow to muscle and nerve cells. Without a steady supply of oxygen and nutrients, nerve and muscle cells begin to die within hours. Unless the pressure is relieved quickly, this can cause permanent disability or death.

Man I hope everything works out for him.

…. regrets the loss of one-time Husky commit James Montgomery. While I cannot say that we feel really bad (we are still the Dawgs), we can sympathize with the notion that when it rains it pours.
