So is he out for the year or not? How many games will he miss? Does anyone know?

Pet peeve.

I was told a significant amount of time.

Oh ok. Is there any chance he could be back by the playoffs?
Posted on 9/18/19 at 10:29 am to The Silverback
Might be back for the LSU game.
Posted on 9/18/19 at 11:38 am to The Silverback
Probably close to the 5-6 week mark. If he makes it before then it would be remarkable.

If it's the same surgery Tua had, his surgery was after the Georgia game and he played against Oklahoma about a month later I believe.

Yeah, Jalen has that same surgery after UT and wasn’t fully back to normal until UGA game

I kinda think this is a lisfranc injury and not an ankle

A&M is exactly one month away.
There are 2 Bye weeks this year. LSU is 7 weeks away.
Seems manageable.
USM
OM
Bye
A&M
Tenn
Arkansas
Bye
LSU

Oh. Well, Barrett Jones played in a NCG with a lisfranc injury one time. Probably a dumb thing to do. Not as dumb as punting a whole season on a torn ACL but still pretty dumb
Getting LaBryan back for LSU or even @Barn would be huge

Eboigbe and Barmore will have to hold down the fort until then. I think Barmore will surprise some people. Probably see more of Young, #47.

He was really good his freshman year. Just seems like he hasn’t taken the next step to me.

Ray has gotten too big and has lost a step,same thibg happened with Davis last year.
Saban likes his DE at a certain weight, but some of these players can't keep their speed at those weights.

or the people around him where much better thus he showed to be better as well. It is assumed that the next player in line is going to take over a spot and become better or at least as good as the player moving on. You're see it across the board that assumption is invalid. What we can expect to see is what production Nick and staff can get out of a bunch of young folks. These next two games are really important for this team. We'll see.

Nick Saban shares recovery timeframe for injured DL LaBryan Ray (BamaOnLine)
quote:
After further testing, Nick Saban provided the latest on junior defensive end LaBryan Ray, who reinjured his foot in the South Carolina game and underwent surgery.
“I would say that LaBryan Ray is probably going to be out for at least six weeks,” Saban said. “And then it will be how is he responding to treatment and therapy and all that type of things. So, I’m not saying he’s going to be back playing in six weeks. I’m just saying I know he’ll be six weeks before he can even start back to doing things. So, we’ll just have to see how he responds.”
Six weeks would put Ray back on the practice field in Alabama’s preparation for LSU for its home game on Saturday, Nov. 9. But that does not mean the former 5-star recruit will be ready to play.
Ray stepped into the starting lineup this fall and started all three of Alabama’s games up to this point. From his defensive end position, the former 5-star recruit registered nine tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, 1.0 sack and forced one fumble. He left the South Carolina game with the injury.
As a true sophomore in 2018, Ray provided depth along the Crimson Tide’s defensive line. He saw time in all 15 of Alabama’s games last season, making one start against Tennessee. Ray recorded 39 total tackles, including 5.5 for loss (-13 yards) and 2.5 sacks (-9 yards), and added two pass breakups and two quarterback hurries coming off the bench a year ago as a sophomore.
The Madison, Ala., native was the nation’s No. 28 overall prospect in the 2017 recruiting cycle, according to the 247Sports Composite. He was also the No. 1 player in the state of Alabama and the No. 2 strong-side defensive end. Ray was 247Sports’ No. 15 overall recruit in that cycle.
Alabama is already without defensive starters Dylan Moses and Joshua McMillon, linebackers who suffered significant knee injuries before the season started that left them out indefinitely.
Freshman Justin Eboigbe is listed as Ray’s backup at defensive end on Alabama’s depth chart. If he does start in place of Ray this weekend, the Tide could have four freshmen in its front seven.
“We knew we were going to have to have a lot of depth in our defense with the freshmen and we’re really pleased with the freshmen that we were able to recruit last year,” Saban said. “And they’ve done a nice job of working, developing and continuing to improve.
“But we’ve had some unfortunate bad luck or whatever you want to call it, losing players at certain positions -- a couple of inside ‘backers, a defensive lineman. These guys have had to be thrust into duty before we thought they would. We’re working hard to try to get them to gain the confidence they need to play well on a consistent basis.”

Seems like a pretty quick judgement to me.
