Morale is high and doubt is out.
Yes Money fractured his fibula just above his ankle attempting to catch a pass that was thrown low yesterday in practice. He is saddened but hopeful. He has dealt with broken bones in the past and is a quicker "healer". However he is desiring a medical redshirt because he wants a chance to play a full two years.
This injury also gives me the opportunity to disclose that his lack of playing time in the Kent St. and Army game was due to a sprained ACL in his shoulder the week of Kent St. thus the reason the original depth chart released that week had him starting and the final depth chart resembled differently. He was being saved for conference play...from what I was told.
No worries as to if he will be okay. We talked all night and he eventually was back to his smiling joyful self. He even joked that " I ain't never doing this [breaking a leg] again." and he sent me a picture that he took from his phone. Though his performance on field has not lived up to expectation to many, he said he is having the time of his life and he wouldnt trade it for anything. He loves his teammates and his coaches and he will stay positive about the injury.
On a more heart felt note, I'd like to personally thank QB Austen Arnaud for all his concern, sympathy and kind words. He was the first to contact me after Money did and express how much he was sorry. That is a true leader for you (and don't tell him I told you but Money said Arnuad was in tears) He's got my heisman vote!!!
This doesn't keep us from FULL support and even attending the games! My father and cousins are coming out to Arrowhead this weekend! I will be watching from VA!
GO CYCLONES!!!!
