That’s what I would have thought. When you damage a ligament you hear two pops. The first one is when you initially tear it. The second is when you finally break the scar tissue and it is just as scary until you realize you don’t have pain. It’s after the second one that you can really start getting back to full speed.
In college, I tore all the ligaments in my left ankle playing pickup basketball. At the start of spring ball, I was barely over a 5 in my forty time and the coaches thought I had been dogging it on my rehab. Halfway through spring, the scar tissue finally popped and by the end I was down to a mid 4.6.
It’s that aspect that has always kept me from expecting TQWSNBN and Kuithe to come back as the previous performance levels. They can both “limp” through practices and prove that they know what they are supposed to be doing. But major college ball requires close to 100% effectiveness to compete. You can’t get it done at 75%. 75% may be better than your replacement but that’s a different conversation.
