It’s a torn ACL
December 13, 2010 by Mike CasazzaJust to clarify, because I keep getting e-mail about this, Brandon Hogan has a torn ACL.
“Technically, from a medical standpoint, the injury is a third-degree sprain of the anterior cruciate ligament, which would be a complete tear,” head football trainer Dave Kerns said.
So there. And, sure, Hogan might play in the bowl, but it’s a long, long shot. Even if he can go, the greater concern is how effective he’d be against N.C. State’s pass attack.
Speaking of long shots, Jeff Mullen doesn’t seem like the lock people wanted to make him out to be at Kent State. Alabama assistant Curt Cignetti is in the lead … and his boss happens to be a Kent State grad who’s been asked to advise the school on its decision.
