[Husker] Pelini Pre-season Press Conference

[Mike Jaixen]

I'm not a doctor, but everything I've read suggests that while you can get back on the field within about 6-9 months after ACL surgery, it takes about twice that long to really get back to a top level.  I'd really hope they'd consider a redshirt season for Anthony Blue, rather than expend a year of eligibilty for a player who won't be anywhere near 100% and won't be ready to play for a while.
