Adrian Peterson to miss rest of season

Broken collarbone. The guy can't stay healthy.

That sucks. I am a Texas fan and I realize what a great talent that kid is. His college career is done.

 

[parchy]

His college career is done.

No its not. He'll probably play in their bowl game this year, and this could be "that" injury that everybody foresaw keeping him from the draft. I doubt he'll stay, but it is now a legit possibility.

 

[Yeagermeister]

That sucks for AP

 

[Crown Royal]

I'm not a college football fan, but I've always felt like this guy plays hurt too much. Since his injury his first year, I have always been kinda worried about his ability to stay healthy. He runs kinda like Eddie George, just taking hits .

 

[Rack]

The dude is a great talent (though not the best RB in the country IMO), but he sure seems to get hurt often.

Wouldn't mind him being a Cowboy though.

I just don't see any way he returns.

 

[Kangaroo]

I always thhought he looked more like Erick Dickerson with that up right running style

I would say the injury just further strengthens his chances of choosing the NFL. Why come back to college for another year, another injury and less money? Go to the NFL and make the big bucks. I heard a few Oklahoma journalists say the young man has just been waiting to become eligible for the NFL. He wants to run on Sunday and that is where he focuses.

He needs to go. I am an OU fan, but he needs to do what is best for him, which is get out of town and collect a check. Why risk a serious injury.

really? **gazes at your sig** didn't know you were an OU fan

i say he jumps into the nfl, cuz if he makes it back to form a la Willis McGahee he can always resign or sign with a new team
