Honestly this is better for SMU. I rather have him completely healthy and rusty than risk re injury.

I've torn both ACLs and it's a 6+ month rehab process. With rehab/drills, he should back fine. The biggest obstacle is mental. You're scared that cutting will lead to another tear.

Which is why I wish he was getting some live game action in before coming to us.

Honestly with my ACL tear and rebuild i didnt feel better till 12 months post. Now 15 months post i've run a half marathon and have started cutting a bit when I play basketball. The worst thing you can do for ACl recovery is rush.

Agreed. He is doing the right thing imo.
