Waymon is out for the year

[FROGDADDY]

Assuming it's true, we should probably consider ourselves extremely lucky to a degree. How many teams in America can lose their best RB and still start a guy that has over 2,000 yards in his career? I'm guessing only us.

If this is true then it will definitely speed up our transition from a balanced offense to a pass-first offense. We are going to become a passing team that uses the run enough to keep defenses honest. Just like all the other high powered Big 12 offenses. I'm seriously bummed because Waymon is my favorite player to watch on the offense. I know CGP likes to run the ball, but we've now (maybe) lost two of our top 3 rushers from last year. Dean will have to step up, but I have my doubts. Hopefully Catalon proves to be as good as the coaches thought he could be in the spring.

I bet our offense changes very little.

Dang bad year for injuries. Hope Waymon sees a full recovery and is able to play again.

Holy crap, hate to hear this if true. Thoughts and prayers with James and TCU family.

Who probably heard it from the troll who heard it from the source troll.

He walked off the field on his own power, remember.

Worth noting that the article Top posted does not say Waymon is fine.

True, but "Game Time Decision" does not equal "Leg ripped off" as so many are inclined to believe...

Something doesn't add up here.....

Im not a doctor, but that doesnt look like an "out for the season" injury or reaction to the injury.

He also came back in the game I believe.

There's only about 2000 lbs of force hitting that knee at an odd angle when he makes that cut. The body can only take so much. He can make that cut 1000 times and it's fine. On the wrong day, it's over.

 

[EastTXFrog]

my guess is that they didn't know yet? takes a bit of time to decide an MRI is needed and then to get the results back

No way that he got hurt on sat and doesn't have MRI results yet, no chance.

I feel you, I just think if he would have torn something he wouldnt have gotten up on his own. Im just looking for positives right now.

Definitely not a fully blown out knee, but even the smallest tear would be enough to cost him the rest of 2012.

So is there any truth to this, or is this the OP:
