If Dr Andrews preformed the surgery then it sounds like he wants people to know that it wasn't his fault or the work he done that caused CK to perform bad.

According to the linked article, he didn't perform the surgery.

Obviously, but he carries serious weight in orthopedics to stem the rumors.
If stemming rumors was his goal, he's a week late.
The chatter goes away if he performs at his Pro Day. If he sucks again, it won't matter who goes to bat for him......

I actually agree with arrakis...he needs to have a much better day.

This seems dangerously close to disclosing a patient's medical information. Hope he got CK's permission.

Andrews, who did not perform Kouandjio's surgery, dismissed the notion that the surgery was botched and has continued to evaluate the player regularly as he continues his training for Alabama's pro day (Andrews works closely with the Alabama program and has been abreast of the tackle's knee since he arrived on campus).
quote:
Kouandjio's performance at the combine was poor -- something he has acknowledged to those close to him and that he is aiming to overcome as he works out for teams in the future. But the tackle's showing was unrelated to his knee, according to Andrews as well as Alabama team doctor Lyle Cain, who performed the surgery. Both doctors stated that since completing his rehab for the ACL/MCL surgery in his freshman year there have been no setbacks, no issues with swelling and that Kouandjio not only played in every game but did not miss a single practice and did not have to spend time in the training room for additional treatment since being cleared to return to practice in the spring of 2012.
During the combine NFL Network reported that the junior was failing physicals and referred to the surgery and the status of his knee subsequent to it as "ugly."
"I wrote a letter to send to every team about his true medical history," Andrews told CBSSports.com. "I'm trying to put out fires that aren't even justified and to clear the record, I guess, is the best way to put it. It came out he had a failed ACL surgery -- that's not even close to the truth. His performance at the combine had nothing to do with his knee situation, and that was blown way out of proportion and that's not fair to the kid.

Yeah...... not it won't.

You really think teams care about rumors? Half the nonsense is disinformation and smoke screens
