Their family is snake bit. Ron had a potentially great college and maybe even NBA career cut short and now this for Andrew. I hope Andrew goes on to greater things.

Scenario Hillman and Steele were our two best defenders, so this really hurts.
QUOTE Steele's absence likely means that freshmen perimeter players Trevor Lacey, Levi Randolph and Rodney Cooper will play an even bigger role--and have an even bigger opportunity--in shaping the Tide backcourt from Game 1 onward. It will also open the door for rising sophomore Charles Hankerson, who saw extended playing time during Bama's NIT run when Steele was sitting due to the concussion that ultimately ended his playing career. With Trevor Releford and Tony Mitchell set to return, the battle for playing time among those four players is sure to be intense http://www.rollbamaroll.com/2011/6/17/2228907/steeles-playing-career-comes-to-an-end Title: Re: AL.com-Latest concussion ends Andrew Steele's basketball career at Alabama Post by: ricky023 on June 17, 2011, 02:18:05 PM I pray god's Blessings upon this young man. Sorry to see him go but it has a reason to it all. RTR!
