Our new QB Gronowski is having surgery and will be back prepping for season in June

Speculation that its throwing shoulder.

Somebody made a comment elsewhere that during SDSU's last game they called for a QB kneel at midfield, just before half, to prevent a Hail Mary attempt from Gronowski.
Welp...That's not good. But if he played through it I'd think not a huge deal unless the surgery goes poorly.

Not remotely the same as McNamara's surgery.

Gronowski played through his all last season and was still running between the tackles and through defenders. It's a routine surgery that will only take a few months to recover fully from.

I'd like him to have the spring too but he's still easily the better option than Sullivan.

Says the psycho who no longer uses Twitter because of Elon Musk's association with Trump. That'll show Elon!

Says the drunk psycho who tagged Hawkman98, a state patrolman, during the Oct 2 VP debate, where he wrote what follows right before you got another one week ban for being the psycho that you are.

The stuff highlighted in red (and the one week ban you received) show there's a lot wrong with you.

What Hawkman98 wrote to you:


If I knew where you lived, I would have a welfare check done on you. You are absolutely unhinged. You can have your opinions, but the fact you think everyone should agree with you is laughable. You are literally just like Trump. You don't see it because you are blinded by hate, but you seem to be very close to having the same personality as Trump. Listen, you spewing hate isn't fixing ANY of the issues. No one is going to change the way they think and vote because of you living on this message board forcing opinions down everyone's throat. Just calm down and realize there is nothing you can do that is going to fix all of your issues. Either Harris or Trump will win and you will have to put up with whoever it is.

Seriously Chis, just relax and enjoy a beer. Just don't drive. If you need help, reach out to a loved one or even me. We will get through this.

PS....If you can, try to refrain from responding the usual things like that I support Trump, Jan 6th, LE being killed on Jan 6th, I don't respect law and order and all of the usual repetitive Chis responses. How about a nice "thanks for caring about me, Hawkman?"


Chissy is gonna get one hell of a load on tonight just thinking about 20 January!!
 
It’s a shoulder. Not sure if it’s his throwing one or non-throwing. Routine surgery, but shoulders always take awhile. Iowa knew about it which is why it took a few extra days….team docs looked at it pretty close. They’re confident will be fully recovered by June. Just sucks to not have our supposed QB1 available for spring workouts to work on timing with backs and receivers.

Yep too soon based on recent history that we are going through this.

Fran changing thread titles and bumping threads and harassing people or a transfer QB coming in injured?


You are such a dumb fook. Do you even think before you type?

You started the harassment and then I replied that you are not only a psycho but a drunk. Everyone knows that is an accurate statement.

Now, waddle back to the Off Topic forum with your bottle of booze; your pals over there miss ya.

Unbelievable. But Brendan Sullivan will be a very good QB1 with Brown from Auburn his backup. Sully has learned a lot from this year and has the talent to continue to improve. I would be happy to have Sully as the starter.
This is not directed at you, but by Iowa's standards Sully is very good - at all other BT programs he would be average at best.

I am going all in on Hank Brown w/Sully performing situational football! ;)

Damn this sucks. Hopefully he will bounce back quickly. Either way, the QB room is in much better shape than a year ago. People underestimate Sully.

@Kinnick.At.Night remember in the other thread when I said I wouldn’t trust someone investing my money that loses money every year? This is a perfect example of the ROI lol.

Hopefully he is good by game 1 but this is some trash not releasing this info before people donated to the SWARM for what they thought was a good get.

Not many...shoulder injuries involving labrum or rotator cuff are usually worse than TJ injuries in terms of coming back to the same level.
I know , He has not even had the surgery yet and Iowa plays Aug 30th Sep 6 at the Clones, Sounds from the articles He gets the knife late January , if it is the throwing shoulder i do not see any way He spins it like pre injury by August and He is missing the reps in a new system with all new receivers and language , This is a freaking nightmare, I will go on record now and say Sulli or Brown will be starting against Albany

Ok. Great. Just do nothing except be pissed off. You want playoffs? Pony up.

Was this disclosed to NIL donors? Im assuming no?

If not, what a shit way to reveal this after the fact. Even if you don't think this is a big deal....the optics of this couldn't have been worse. This is not the way to gain more SWARM members. Tell this to Brad any time he complains
If He does not play or throws like Cade getting put into the turf like a lawn dart by a Northwestern DE after this surgery SWARM is cooked
