a nation holds its breath . . .

Hes fine. It was a half a twist. Ive done that 15 times

 

[690West]

He'll be 100% Saturday. Not even 99%. Those 18 year old ankles recover within 5 minutes

Don't worry. A little sore tomorrow. Fine by friday.

 

[bballbeadle]

Don't believe you! Did you see his face? Still holding my breath!!!!! (feeling dizzy...)

 

[jekelish]

Yeah, it'll be tender for a couple of days but he'll be back to 100% by the Duke game. Anyone who has played basketball has tweaked his ankle like that, and been able to shake it off pretty quickly. He was moving around well enough that it clearly wasn't anything too serious.

 

[Orangezoo]

They can swell a little but if it was bad adrenaline alone would not have been enough. He doesnt play fast enough for him to have that much adrenaline pumping

 

[skurey]

have to amputate the entire foot

. @tdot_ennis to us on his twisted ankle "It's good. I'll be fine by Saturday." That is all. #SUvoice

 

[bballbeadle]

That's what I thought!

 

[ssbriefcase]

I was just saying how the announcer was being over the top dramatic. Rolled ankles happen almost every game. If it was serious JB wouldn't have had him in up 12 with under a min. I expect this to be on the ticker now.

 

[ORRange]

Wow someone brought up this concern in preseason. Just can't remember who it was.

 

[ssbriefcase]

Maybe just one more reason to get rid of the green lantern shoes...

 

[Jasoncuse]

He stayed in, that was the only confirmation I need that he'll be fine for Saturday. If it was bad, he wouldn't be putting weight on it, let alone playing. I'm sure there was some discomfort, but treatment on Thurs/Fri/early Sat will have him ready to go.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Ennis with a peg leg would be pretty bad A.

 

[moqui]

have to amputate the entire foot

maybe take off an nuke the whole thing from orbit . . . it's the only way to be sure

 

[senorpalmer]

If he has to he'll gnaw it off like a freakin' wolverine. And be ready to go on Saturday.

Strongly disagree with many opinions expressed here.

High school: Sprained ankle ... kept playing ... couldn't put any weight on it the next day.

College: Sprained ankle ... couldn't play on it ... iced all night ... nearly 100% in a couple days.

IMO, his ankle should be iced & elevated on the flight home and overnight regardless of what Tyler says. Will our training staff insist on this?(obviously, IMO they should)

I twisted my ankle and was bed ridden for two weeks. Then again, I am 71 and will do anything to avoid those dastardly honey do lists.

That layup Ennis made straight down the middle in transition in the middle of the 2nd half - I thought the 3 WF players near the basket saw him going 'half' speed so they didn't think he was going all the way to the basketball and didn't defend him - turned out to be a surprisingly easy 2.

They can swell a little but if it was bad adrenaline alone would not have been enough. He doesnt play fast enough for him to have that much adrenaline pumping

 

[supp]

Check out the replay. He was already limping some at the 7:30 mark. He re-aggravated the ankle at the 5 minute mark. Hope he's okay for Saturday. He looked to be in real pain.

 

[jekelish]

If he IS a little banged up, I have an idea that's just crazy enough to work...

And as a 40 something year old man, that same injury requires a week or so of rest and crutches.

I do NOT understand these young kids and their low top shoes. I think we see Tyler in a brace on that ankle on Saturday. And he'll be fine.

 

[Orangello]

While we're at it, burn those GD green shoes please. Two turn overs in the last two games by our sterling PG. Bad vibes from those things.......

He can wear Peter Pan disco getaway boots for all I care, as long as it makes him happy.
