RB Ronald Thompkins [Nebraska - Signed LOI]

[B.B. Hemingway]

Kudos to the staff for sticking by the kid, but man. Two years in a row tearing an ACL? We'll see I guess.

Our strength and nutrition staff will get him right

Would be awesome if he could early enroll, he could really jump start his return that way.

It would be nice if Watson steered his son our way.  Would be a great get.

That's rough. If JoJo Domann plays, he could be the poster child for coming back from this situation.

Due to surgery he's not sure he'll make it next week.

Bet he plays the final 4 games of the year if we need him.

Wow, he waited a really long time before going under the knife.

Wow, he waited a really long time before going under the knife.

Depends on how bad the tear and the surrounding damage was. They won't do surgery until all swelling is gone in the knee. Had a buddy at work who tore his ACL earlier this year and it took him a full month before the doctor would touch it.

"Within minutes of the injury, I was getting text messages from the Nebraska coaches and they have been supportive from the beginning of this.

"They just keep telling me that they have my back regardless of what happens. They want me at Nebraska and that makes me feel great. I had some fears for a minute, but they went away.

"I talk to coach Scott Frost and coach Ryan Held every day. They make me feel important. To hear from them lets me know they care. They have supported me all the way and that is a great feeling."
