Time for some positive mojo ..DC

This is more logical than all I've heard around town about he's never played a full season or big guys can't recover ...blah blah blah

“Studies have shown that there is only about a 40% return to sport after the microfracture procedure which is the standard of care treatment in the U.S. ......
...Over 90% of patients return to sport with the OATS procedure, said Riley J. Williams, III, senior investigator of the study. “For those who have isolated cartilage lesions of the femur and are interested in a return to sport in a timely and predictable fashion, the OATS procedure, relative to microfracture, represents a better option
 
Coleman had the microfacture surgery not the OATS, correct?
 
Well hope he is feeling his oats then.

This will be the second year in a row that SU has a monster year out of no where from a center. Coleman will lead the ACC in FTA.
That's what I'm hoping and I believe if he is healthy throughout the season it's not a stretch at all. One thing we can all be certain of and that's he is determined, he has persevered and he can be a beast!

Definitely a good thing that he had the OATS procedure done. The biggest question is, while 90% return to sports under this procedure, at what capacity? How does it compare to pre-OATS? I know with ACL injuries you can come back even stronger, but im guessing that is not the case with this injury/procedure?
 
look closer, LOL :(
I've got nothing, but I am fairly certain it wasn't Professor Plumb in the study with the ice pick. Still working on it......
but wait a minute! I was about to say, but I do like Hall and Oates....then it hit me - OATES! I win!
Got his autograph back in the day. Just Oates, not Hall. :eek:

The article shows the average Marx Activity Level scores each year (from year 1 to year 5) for each participant. I know the scale goes from 0 to 16, but I don't know what's considered a good score, or what score would represent the participants' return to pre-surgery activity levels (if any score approached that).

It does show that the year 1 scores are significantly better than the microfracture scores for any year, but it's still pretty far off from the year 5 OATS scores (5.21 vs. 8.55). The biggest leap by far is from year 1 to year 2 with OATS (5.21 to 7.29), though, and I think DC is coming up on two years, yes? This might be a good sign.
