That's a crime. He's worked too hard.
Don, I hope you feel better -- soon.
Go get 'em, Cory Muse.

That is one tough guy.
Achilles? Most people can't walk-- he was still movin around during the second half!
Undeserved, Don. Hang in there!

Any chance he can get a medical redshirt?

I've met Don a couple of times, and I can't think of a student-athlete with more passion and dedication for his team. Achilles injuries reportedly are among the most painful that an athlete can suffer, and the fact that he hobbled around after hurting it is a tribute to his toughness. He is a great Mustang. Good luck in rehab.

must be a partial tear and then he maid it worse, b/c you cannot walk or jog around with a completely torn achilles, you can drag the foot but not move around on it because the foot is disconnected from the calf

If it happened in the first half, why did the coaches not pull him out of the game? Wouldn't it have been better to not let him play in hopes that it could heal and he could play latter in the season?

Good luck to him. This does not help with our depth situation!
