McKenzie Milton

[wvkeeper(HN)]

That's as bad as an injury as I've seen.

I turned it on right as they were carting him off. Leg?

 

[AtlantaHerdFan]

Very talented young man, prayers being lifted up for his recovery.

It was pretty nasty, here is the link to the story and video.

He is lucky he didn’t lose his leg.

 

[AtlantaHerdFan]

Thank you for the update. Praying he will make a full recovery.

 

[Raoul Duke MU]

Marcus Lattimore, looked exactly the same.

UCF can suck eggs, but I hate to see that. The young man seems to be a great leader on that team.

 

[The Real SamC]

Sorry for the kid. Hope he recovers to be a non-handicapped productive member of society.

Tired of UCF's idiotic act and THE AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'s idiotic act. With or without this guy, Alabama by 60.

I don’t believe lattimore severed popliteal artery like Milton did. Milton was in a very dangerous situation. Doctors didn’t have long to restore blood flow or else lower leg tissue begins to die at which point doctors would have no choice but to amputate

I hope I'm able to buy another UCF National Champions shirt again this year. Would be really cool to see them go undefeated and claim themselves National Champions without their QB, similarly to how Ohio State did it a few years ago.

I'm not a doctor. As a sports fan, the way he was hit and the way the leg was hanging reminded me of Lattimore.

Your obsession with a conference far superior to C-USA is really bizarre.

They both dislocated their knee. The difference is whether or not the artery is compromised. Lattimores was not and unfortunately Milton’s was.
Sorry if I wasn’t clear

More comparable to Zach Miller's last year.

There have been some brutal leg injuries in sports... Of course everyone remembers Joe Theismann... Willis McGahee in the 2002 Fiesta Bowl (the worst one I can remember seeing in real time on TV)... Gordon Hayward with the Celtics was absolutely brutal.

No way to avoid those kind of things and its only going to get worse as athletes continue to get bigger and faster.

Hopefully the Milton kid recovers completely and has no lasting effects.

 

[Tim Hensley]

Let's hope for a full recovery,
