I believe Carper was lost for the year last fall because of a major knee injury. But I didn't see him on the spring 2 deeps and he wasn't mentioned at all. I think he's a quality player with some athletic ability, and along w/ Bowen and Banks the only LB w/ any experience. Is he still on the team, and if so, can he recover from the injury in time to be a factor this fall?
He didn't participate this spring due to his injury, but he's still on the team.
I've seen him around campus and he still has a limp. I've also heard that his knee may never be the same, and it's not a sure thing that he'll ever be back. Of course I hope he is able to recover for his own sake as it would be tough for his career to end that way.
This water's cold.
i heard that he did the same thing that willis mcgahee did....painful
It's a long road back for Adam. No one really expected him to contribute this spring.
This fall? Just gotta wait and see.
Hope for the best for him. During the open practices I went to he was rehabbing like a madman. On an unrelated side note, I saw Matt Robertson walking down Welch during VEISHEA looking ripped as ever, probably near 250. I also hear he will be playing football at NW Missouri State next year.
i really think carper is more suited for safety. he doesnt have the size to be a great linebacker and was heavily recruited out of high school for that position. i think if he was healthy beating out berg would have been a good possibility of him under chizik
His knee must be keeping him from Finance 330 class as well, I have only seen him about 4 times. 3 of them were test days...
Oh yeah, Adam Carper is a great guy, I hope he is able to be a factor this fall, you know he wants to be on the field. As for Matt, I haven't seen him forever, he's another good guy who just made a bad mistake and I don't think people understand how much we missed him last year.Quote:

I also saw someone I haven't seen in person before: Jiri Hubalek. He was drinkin a budweiser and watchin' us idiots suck at beerspie. He sure has gotten a lot better at the english language from when I used to hear him talk. And dammit is he tall...I am 6'4" and still feel like I am starring at the ceiling around him.
so YOURE the 6'4" guy i saw that had a complete man crush on jiri....
yah I saw Jiri too, walkin around with Alex Thompson. and we had some wrestling celebs come by the house on welch and try their hand at the keg stand, i love veishea
