Nadoball 18 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Anyone know exactly what the injury was and when or if he is expected back? Devon Johnson you mean. With out Devon our team changes dramatically but we did play a great game last night, the blues will be ok. Only thing anyone knows is he took a helmet to the knee, could be bruised, fractured bone, MCL or ACL, at this point nobody knows. Hopefully nothing serious but it didn't look good.

Guest lookoutmountain Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 I keep thinking of him as the NBA playing Devon Brown for some reason. Anyway, Devon Johnson. Hopefully he's ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89bluedevil 10 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 I hope Johnson is OK. Couldn't see real well from where I was sitting, but I could tell it was a tackle around the lower leg. Looked like he was putting some weight on it as he left the field, so hopefully that is a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigrhsfan 884 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 I heard he had some swelling around the knee, which if true is not a good sign, but right now it's all speculation Just hate to see him have that injury at all much less in the 1st qtr of the 1st game. Hopefully he will be fine and get to play the rest of his Sr season ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueinbama 259 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) No MRI needed, bruised knee, little fluid on it That's what coach Mance had said originally at the half on WRIC, but when someone said he was taken to the hospital I was very concerned. Hopefully his knee will feel 100% very soon. Edited August 29, 2011 by blueinbama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance 228 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 I heard he was ok...negative on ligament damage, but going back to the docs tomorrow for another check up...has some swelling but it's getting better as time goes by...will be out this week, but ready for next week if needed unless things change. Good news for the Richlands folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigrhsfan 884 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Sooooo glad to hear that report ! I doubt they will play him this week or next and try to get him 100% for the Pulaski Co game. This game with Union could be a tough one especially since it will be their first home game as Union high and beating Richlands would be one heck of a way for them to start their home stance out. But I still have a lot of confidence in the blues to get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VHSLhelper 571 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 thought I'd add a link to the video report... http://www.wvva.com/global/video/flash/popupplayer.asp?ClipID1=6202689&h1=Richlands%20Running%20Back%20Day-to-Day&vt1=v&at1=Sport&d1=58766&LaunchPageAdTag=Sport&activePane=info&rnd=80214006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance 228 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Just an update...Devon got a good report from the docs today...he is cleared to play Friday, but my guess is that he will still sit it out for a week just to be safe, I doubt Richalnds will need him anyway.... he says its feeling better every day...look for him back in action next week...but, maybe this week.
