My point is that he not only has to get past THAT injury, he also has to avoid additional injuries.  Some QBs are injury prone... even if one of those injuries is a fluke.  Not like anyone TRIES to get injured.  Cannot blame any injury prone QB.  The game happens.  But it is a mistake to assume that Angeli starts every regular season game next year, regardless of his recovery from THIS injury.

And then there are nagging injuries.  Castellanos has not missed a game for FSU, IIRC, but the consensus is that he is not playing close to 100% either.  So there is also nagging injuries that reduce effectiveness.  So we need a QB2 that can take the reins for one week just to let Angeli heal properly, etc.  Like Oklahoma with the Mateer injury.  And he is another example of a guy that is playing hurt and came back too early to try to give them a chance to beat Texas.

This is a very tough situation.  But if the Nixon offense only works for Angeli and not for any other QB on the roster... that makes it a pretty big gamble that next year is not another one where the wheels fall off.
