Zay Roby out 6-8 weeks

[Swan Ronson]

Unforunate, but hopefully resting it will fix it and it sounds like he should be healthy and ready to go for the first game.

Just like Shavon. Different injuries, of course.

[AuroranHusker]

It's roughly 10 weeks until practice starts. And the season opener is in a mere 118 days.

Players respond to post-injuries very differently. I really hope this doesn't cause him to lose any confidence or play softer as a result. Wishing him all the best on these long weeks ahead.

Has anyone ever heard of a stress fracture to the pelvis before? Seems rare. Hopefully it just requires rest and he'll be good to go.  

[Norm Peterson]

I'd much rather have him be out 6-8 weeks beginning the first part of July than be out 6-8 weeks starting in mid-December.

So . . . both Ed Morrow and Isaiah Roby show up at Nebraska with a significant injury that's been bothering them from their high school playing days.  Each requires substantial down-time.  Both lose valuable learning time during the earliest times of their college days.      

Here's Isaiah's injury info from the article:

 

"The injury, Miles said, is the result of wear and tear on Roby's body, not from a recent particular incident.

"He's been feeling it for several months, back to his high school days," Miles said. "He's been complaining about his hip, and we looked at his hips and tested everything out, and his hips were good. So then we did the MRI and X-Ray and found it."

The only cure, Miles said, is rest and no contact.

But other than that this off season is going great!

Can't believe nobody has made any jokes about this pelvic stress fracture. Seems like easy pickings, but I'm no comedian.

We will see...but it doesn't sound like a huge deal. As long as he's ready to go once practices start up I doubt it will hamper him much.

You see them in runners from time to time.

Is it time to sacrifice a goat or a pig to get rid of the bad luck?  I will grill it if we need to do so.

I think Standhardinger had one.  Cold weather was a contributing factor....

It's not believed to be Pokemon related

The good news is that it is not to the legs or feet.  The bad news is this will keep him off the floor and away from the weights, and that is certainly a set back.  Can it be overcome, yes.  But it still hurts the early development and the preparation to the year.  Sort of like what happened to MJ last year.  I am not convinced he ever recovered 100% from his set-back.  Same with Ed. 

 

So although the news is not horrible, it certainly is not pleasant to hear that someone we are counting on, will not be good to go until the start of practice.

I blame AW3.

Still can lift though

Fwiw, I'd rather it be a foot/ankle/knee injury - not a stress related issue in the hip/pelvis area. Those can linger forever and cause constant annoyance and discomfort, and never truly be "healed."

I hope he'll be cleared to play in under a Burno

Hopefully only half-a-Burno after having been a month 'out' already.

Could be worse. I've got a good friend that during practice last night for a game this Saturday broke her tibia, her fibula and ripped out all the ligaments in one of her legs. She's going to be out a while.
