I'm serious. Earlier in the year he had some mild injury and Iowa fans were thinking he was done for the year and then he sprains his ankle and the hope was he would be back in time for the BTT and the fade had an excuse. Lol it's almost disrespectful to Frederick

I meant the "former walk on " part but you knew that.

Well he was. Honestly though you guys have been pretty disrespectful to Frederick. You guys act like he's super soft and a minor injury is going to shut him down

It was originally reported as a high ankle sprain. The fact it wasnt is a huge break for him.

Why would someone report it as a high ankle sprain if it wasn't? Lol the difference between a high ankle sprain and a regular ankle sprain is obvious even to an untrained eye

Ok, I am pretty sure his uncle initially said it was a high ankle sprain.

CJ is apparently a quick healer and tough as nails. Love that kid.

I mean he missed a game because of a sprained ankle. Not sure I call that being tough. I bet most people who have played sports played through an ankle sprain

So you guys ran with what his uncle said and we're hoping he would be back in time for the BTT? Lol you guys are something else

I mean it seems like hes really close with his uncle and his uncles relationship with Fran is a big reason as to why he came to Iowa. Seems like a solid source.
