Title: Former Alabama star Tyrone Prothro: 'I don't want to see somebody end up like me Post by: pmull on April 10, 2011, 07:08:42 AM Tyrone Prothro, who once outran college football's finest athletes, walks on the side of his left foot. That has caused problems in his left knee and escalated to his hip.
So he's considering one more surgery -- paid for by the University of Alabama, like all of the previous ones since his gruesome fractured leg and infection in 2005. Some scar tissue would be removed and the foot would get straightened in its socket. One more surgery to try to outrun whatever health issues may lie ahead. "It might better my life as I go on," Prothro said. "Eventually, if I don't fix it, I might have more problems than I have now." http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2011/04/former_alabama_star_tyrone_pro.html Title: Re: Former Alabama star Tyrone Prothro: 'I don't want to see somebody end up like me Post by: Terrie1959 on April 10, 2011, 08:26:41 AM He is one my favorite Alabama team members.

It seems to me like all of his rights should revert back to him after his eligibility expires. The school should still have the rights too, but after the eligibility expires both the school and the player should be able to sell pictures and things like that.

His push to be extra good would rub off on others I think. I hope to see him coaching one day. RTR!

He would not only be a great coach but a fine mentor to the young men following in his footsteps.
