"Yeah, so, Hunter -- so Hunter did have surgery," Petersen told the media Wednesday during Pac-12 Media Day. "We'll just see how he progresses. He's not going to be ready at the start of the season. May end up being his red-shirt year, especially with the four games that we can play. But he will not be ready at the start of the season. It will be a month or two before we can even kind of really see where he's at. The surgery went really, really well.
"It's a really unique injury. They rehabbed it. The rehab was really going well for him to do spring football. And then just in a workout, it just kind of swelled up and wasn't acting right.
"So then they did decide to go in there, and felt really good about what they did. Our doctors usually don't come out saying we feel really good about this, but they did. So I think his long-term prognosis is really good, it's just going to take some time to get him back."
If he plays those four games at the end of the year I'll be thrilled.

Well in classic Pete form, I have no idea what the fuck any of that means.
He has a talent for talking without giving any information
We have Hunter in the hands of our medical staff which is one of the best in the country. We are closely monitoring his progress, if he needs to make progress, and maybe he is fine as he is now but if he does need to progress we will be watching closely. Hunter is a big part of our plans but we always plan to have someone and to not have them so that our plans are always a good plan to have if there is any reason to plan differently
This is why I stopped listening to sports radio. It's fucking awful.
If there is any silver lining, I guess it is that he will have more eligibility in coming years when we should have a better QB to throw him the ball.
He's not going to be here 5 years
Nobody said he was.
But no worries, I understand you probably weren't a reading comprehension major in college.
OK since we agree I'm clearly slow, please break it down for me. If you're not suggesting he'll be here for his RS senior season how is this injury going to get him "more eligibility in coming years"?

I'm saying he probably plans to play X number of seasons, regardless of what X is (2, 3, 4).
If he is not eligible this year, due to injury, then I think he will still be here for X number of playing seasons -- X won't change, and more of those will be with a QB better than Browning.
And the 'reading comprehension major' thing was a joke, referencing the old 'grammar major' meme from the old dawgman days, before HH was a thing, and before we called memes, memes.

So it has nothing to do with eligibility then. You're just saying you think this means he'll stay 4 years instead of 3.

Got it.
I'm saying he will stay enough seasons to get the target playing years he wants, and if he has to sit out a season (not play) due to injury, then he will still stay long enough to play the number of years he thinks he needs to play to make it to the next level.
I can't make it any simpler for you without asking you to retake 3rd grade math.

Burn?
I *get* it just fine.
Your argument has nothing to do with eligibility. I have no idea if you're correct but I have no problem with it as stated in your most recent post.

Ligament repair has come a long way since the days of Curt Warner. Time. Rehab. Profit.
