Title: Bama running back Lacy injured
Post by: Jamos on July 27, 2011, 08:56:29 PM
Per Tiderinsider, Lacy had a Pec injury this morning lifting weights and first thoughts is that he will be out for two weeks.

I heard he tore his pec and will miss entire season... I am hoping you are right on this one.

Not an attempt at humor. Like I said, hope it is merely a two week recovery.

The more I am reading, it sounds like reports are two weeks from people that might know (bamaonline mods, TI), but rumors are that it's torn, which would put him out for the season.

Normally, a pec "injury" means tear, let's really hope this is not the case. Wow, this could be a game changer.

Title: Re: Bama running back Lacy injured
Post by: Marshal Dillon on July 27, 2011, 09:40:37 PM
If he is out, then how would RB line up? I think it would be:

Trent Richardson
Jalston Fowler
Brent Callaway

Who else might be in the mix, a walk-on?   ???

Lil' medical lesson for you. A tear, a stretch, a pull, are all the same thing. Just diffent names. It is the degree to wicth he tore it that we will be concerned about.

BTW while we are on the subject, a fractured bone, and a broken bone....same thing also.

This is the same injury that Baron had in the Iron Bowl.  A one armed man should not  be in the game playing safety, but that is another story.  He was out for the bowl game if I recall correctly, so it seems plausible that Lacy could be out for the season.  I guess it just depends on how severe it is.  Hopefully he will be back soon.  We still have 37 days to go, so maybe he can be back in time for the meat of the SEC schedule.


Title: Re: Bama running back Lacy injured
Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on July 27, 2011, 09:52:45 PM
WOW. Just unbelievable. We went front 6 or 7 running backs last spring to 2 or 3. Puts more pressure on the new QBs to make plays happen.

Hold on everybody, if anyone can carry the ball 30 times a game it is Trent Richardson. I would not want any other player carrying the ball. Our Oline will kick butt this year.

All the more reason to rue the loss of Dee Hart for the season. We are not THAT deep at RB anymore. Imagine what the loss of BATR would mean to the 2011 season. Remember that we have yet to establish any passing game, whatsoever. Sorry to bring that up but...

Agreed. Lets just hope the injury, doesn't match that of Mark Barron's. Hopefully...CNS or the University will have more info comin up soon...

Just another message board, but fyi

This has been reported on another site. Apparently Eddie tore his pectoral muscle; however, this is not the injury that Mark Barron suffered last year. Barron tore his muscle at the point where the muscle attaches to the bone--that tissue has relatively little blood supply, which is one of the reasons for the lengthy recovery. Lacy's tear is in the center of the muscle--the meat of the muscle, if you will, making it easier for the body to repair itself.

There is no truth to the rumors that Trent Richardson has been spotted on campus swaddled in bubblewrap.

You can send him a PM.  My guess is if he knew he would come post about it.  I will keep looking on the interwebs, the news will be out soon enough.

I think it's safe to say the injury happened.  Quick word was probably that it would be a couple of weeks.  Some booger probably started the "Season ending" stuff, or someone heard "torn pec" and assumed it was season ending.

The truth is probably in between.

With Kent State being the first game, that would seem to be one that we could afford not to have EL for. However, I am hopeful that he could be back for PSU.

I have read "reevaluate in 4 weeks" and "6 weeks", still nothing remotely solid.

It seems to be back now, it could have just been temporarily overloaded with people looking for news.  I didn't see any news on Lacy though (at least not on the free part).

I hope this would not be someone trying to create a bama meltdown when we heard the news and I am afraid I was the first. I did get pretty nervous and upset. I think Eddie has this year to prove he is the man next year. RTR!

There is enough talk going on that I agree with you it is safe to say an injury happenened. I'm sure we are looking in the same places but I can not find a credible source to confirm the injury or how severe the injury may be. Hopefully it is something minor and he will not be out long.

The way this thing has rolled out, I would think that someone who was at or near his workout leaked this if it is actually true. We all know about texts and tweets.

CNS has stated many times that any injuries are kept private until he is ready to release any info.

I have been looking on the internet all day for Eddie Lacy information. I have not found any credible information, only rumors. Best I can tell this story was first reported by Tigerdroppings. I have noticed before that TD knows more about Alabama than we know about ourselves. How are they getting this information before we do?

Strained Pec.  Nothing more than that.  He will be taking it easy for precautionary reasons.  No crutches or anything else.  I have a 3 for 3 record for my statements on matters of this deal.

He will be out 3-4 weeks from yesterday.  I am the credible link.

I would agree that you are a credible link.  Is the 3-4 weeks pretty accurate, or does he still need to visit with a Dr. for tests before we know for sure?


Title: Re: Bama running back Lacy injured
Post by: Marshal Dillon on July 28, 2011, 05:17:04 PM
The problem is, if it takes 4 weeks, he's got to get back in shape, practice, and get ready to play, which is probably another 3-4 weeks.

He should be able to run and stay in shape, even do some donkey presses, leg curls, etc. to keep his legs strong.  He won't be able to work his upper body, but that shouldn't hold him back to much.  His legs are the key as a "running back" obviously.  If the 3-4 weeks is accurate, I bet he is ready to go by Penn St. (6 weeks from tomorrow).  I think we will be OK.

What exactly does this mean:


Eddie Lacy apparently sustained a pectoral injury while working out in the weight room Wednesday morning, it’s not considered a major setback and he's not expected to have surgery.


This sounds like doubletalk. How much time is he going to miss?
