SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Redshirt junior defensive lineman Josh Allen has been medically disqualified from participation in football at Syracuse University after being diagnosed with a cardiac condition. Allen, a junior-college transfer, joined the Orange earlier this month in preparation for the start of preseason camp.

Could we go just one month without seeing a player get medically DQ'd?

Is there something in the water?

 

[Cuse'91]

Wow, just wow...

Kid just had surgery and now its out that he has a cardiac condition. Something tells me this one makes more sense than the last one.

 

[JarHeadJim]

What?

 

[Alsacs]

I am going to give the benefit of the doubt on this one. But damn.
I hope he doesn't leave and play elsewhere. If he does. Then look out.

Stephen Bailey‏
Syracuse rJr. DE Josh Allen has been medically disqualified due to a cardiac condition, SU Athletics announces. He just arrived this summer. Allen was viewed as an immediate contributor. It Steven Clark stays DQ'd (meeting w/ Tucker today), SU is going to be really thin on d-line.

 

[texascpa]

Unbelievable. Can't catch a break.

I get that reaction from a football fan standpoint (DL...yikes), but the young man who may have just had a cardiac condition caught and treated may think he's caught one heck of a break.

did he have heart surgery?

 

[721Comstock]

Sigh. This is why we can't have nice things.

Wish him well, and hope he can live a long and healthy life.

 

[UnknownOrange]

Hope he is able to stay @ Syracuse to complete his degree

SU just like a top 40 radio station: The hits just keep on rolling!

Agreed but I hope that at least 2 cardiologists confirmed this decision before a DQ. I feel bad for the kid.

Staff better start converting some OLs to DLs asap.

Josh still has a scholarship. He can stay, if he so chooses.

Dammit ... this was a guy who was being counted on heavily to bolster a key area of need. D-Line just got a lot weaker.

What the heck is going on?

 

[sdhall01]

Ugh! I swear on all that is holy that we are cursed or something. It's my fault. I was most looking forward to seeing M. Williams' and J. Allen's impact on the defense this year, and I can't have nice things.

Edit: Josh, I hope you get well and can continue to follow your dreams.

 

[SUforme]

Jesus can anything happen right medically for this team? Get well Josh!

 

[illi3]

did he have heart surgery?

His most recent tweets are asking for prayers and then saying surgery went well. That was followed up by todays news. I was just putting pieces together. I should obviously add that I don't have any inside info or anything. Just made sense.

 

[Ozcuse]

Feel terrible for the kid. Hopefully he can still have completely healthy and productive life outside of football.

We can't catch a break on the DLine.
