Does the fact that Afam is done for the year...

Mean Heath will get at least 2 more to right the ship? Think about it.

Also...Afam has had knee troubles his entire basketball career with UW...will he ever be back to 100%?

Correct. Heath now has an excuse.

This is not a good injury. An ACL is never good, but that would have been better than a ruptured patellar tendon. A basketball player relies a lot on this tendon when doing anything...running, jumping, etc. Not to mention that the surgical repair is tricky and can lead to a very slow, drawn-out recovery. Unfortunately with his history of knee problems, the best case scenario means he will have knee problems for the rest of his life. Worst case, this could be career-ending and leave him with life-long problems. Hopefully things work out for him, but this type of injury means he already had a lot of problems before Wednesday's game.

Good post, good info. Hopefully Afam makes it back. One thing we will all get to witness though...will the Cowboys sack up, or will they fold...and how will Heath (etal) respond...

Manzano? Who...
