This sucks! Third time Chambers has had a season ending injury (assuming this ends his season). Dude is a competitor and can’t catch a break.

On the bright side - Williams will be a redshirt freshman next year after playing several games last year and being the starter this year. And Chambers will be a 4th year Sophomore.

If Sean chooses to come back we’d welcome him, but dang. How much abuse can one body take? I want him to have a normal, healthy life going forward. Get well soon , Sean

That is some harsh luck. And 3 years in a row.

You have to wonder if he'll try again next year or if he'll retire. If he does, I wouldn't hold it against him at all. If he comes back, props to him.

I personally don’t see him hanging it up. Dude is a competitor and has 3 years left to play! Depending on the severity and any complications, fibula breaks typically heal stronger than before. He’s been through it before.

Is this the opposite leg from his last fibula break?

Yep. Right fibula as a freshman and left fibula this year.

According to Bohl’s most recent statement, there is a possibility that surgery won’t be required (I.e. no bone displacement). If that’s the case, the recovery time should hopefully be lessened.
