MattM Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 KyMann I think you may be a little confused. I believe he is asking about Andrew Howe from Wisconsin. Wisconsin site is buzzing about it. http://www.wiwrestling.info/forum/index.php?topic=26031.0 But nothing I have read that is official yet.

PROPOWER Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I spoke with Andrew last night and he told me he was goal was to be back for Big 10 duals - so unless something new came about today I think he will be working hard to get himself healed and back on the mat asap!

kullerySBR Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 KyMann I think you may be a little confused. I believe he is asking about Andrew Howe from Wisconsin. Y2 posted something on the College Board http://indianamat.com/messageboard/index.php/topic,14364.0.html and Wisconsin site is buzzing about it. http://www.wiwrestling.info/forum/index.php?topic=26031.0 But nothing I have read that is official yet. My bad lol he just mentioned howe, and I wasn't aware of Andrew Howe yet today so I got a little confused ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drooke Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Coach Frayer posted on the Wisconsin Board that Andrew was indeed having surgery next week, that would end his season. Anyone have any new or conflicting info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munges Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 So what is the criteria for a medical redshirt? Is it too late in the season for one? Can you have a medical redshirt and an olympic redshirt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 He has wrestled too much for a medical redshirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PROPOWER Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Just got a text from Andrew - "they misread the MRI originally. my hamstring is completely torn and I should be having surgery next week. Think I'll be out till July". This is bad news for Andrew but I know he will work hard to get himself back into shape and be on top again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Brigade Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 That's just terrible news. No one works harder than Howe and few are as committed to their craft as he is. I'm sure he'll come back better and meaner than ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruschi Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 That is horrible news. Watching the video it did not look that bad, I would have never thought out for 6 months. Tough break. Too bad for wrestling as well... Howe vs. Burroughs I, II, III would have been fun. Hopefully he can overcome this and be back and better. Too bad he losses a year of winning a national championship. Could have went down as one of the best 2,1,1,1 and not redshirting. That sucks. Been following his career for a while and never remember him being injured at any point.

Rasslar Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Yes it definitely sucks. However, at least it happened after getting a national championship title. Not to many elite wrestlers, not to mention NCAA champions can claim to have never had a serious injury from this physically demanding sport. Hope for a speedy recovery Andrew.

throw45 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 A torn hammy is a bad injury, even sitting down is uncomfortable. You know that it would take darn near an "act of God" to get Howe off the mat, if anyone can make a full recovery it's him. Good luck Andrew, you're still the champ.

devildog47959 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 WOW THIS SUCKS! I was really lookin forward to Howe vs Burroughs II in March would have been fun to watch, would have been huge for the sport! Howe taking olympic red shrt next season, if he does best of luck, might get to see burroughs vs howe then! Still has a shot at 2X NCAA Champ and im sure an olympic gold medal would help ease the pain from this season ending injury. Good Luck Howe, ALL Hoosiers are Rooting for you!

PROPOWER Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Just heard again from Andrew - They decided not to do the surgery and there is still a chance for him to be back on the mat in March. They have him doing rehab and upper body lifts and cardio every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahawkeye Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I really hope he does what is best for him and his career. Can he be competitive enough to win another title? I hope if he comes back this year he is 100% in my opinion if he wasn't 100% then hold off and concentrate on the Olymics. Then again I'm just some guy in front of a computer, he's a national champ and it's his call. Good luck either way Andrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
