GREAT NEWS! Thank you for the update Cougar King.Cougar King wrote:DJ got out of bed over the weekend and was walking around. It appears that he will make a full recovery and could possibly return to football in a year. Maybe he can apply to the NCAA for an additional year (he is a senior) but it is doubtful that he will get it since he started in every game this year.
When he turned down A&M, Ok State and Baylor to play for us, I knew he was going to be a hell of a player.

Man, that's great to hear. Hard to believe he's already moving around. Modern medicine is incredible sometimes.
