Bama fans, this isn’t a troll, so don’t get mad

It does seem strange that Matt Ryan and Saquon Barkley, two nfl players with a recent high ankle sprain, aren’t getting this procedure. Why are assets worth millions letting it heal naturally, while Bama is turning out this surgery over and over again? Without being cynical, it simply seems strange

It seems, at least on the outside, when you are protecting an asset you have for multiple years you let it rest naturally. While if you only have said player for a year or two no matter what, the surgery is chosen

No one is forcing the surgery on the players who choose to have it. It's presented as an option, one that has worked well with no ill effects in the past. If the players want to have the surgery to heal faster, that's up to them, not a bunch of bleeding vaginas on a message board who are feigning concern over player safety to constantly troll the board.

Why did Orgeron force an LSU player to have the exact same surgery after the texas game?

Could be the NFL players influencing that choice. Let’s see, I can have surgery and play in a few weeks or stand on the sidelines and make the same money. Won’t get hit and won’t have to run in practice. Hmmm..... and my pay is the same.

A college player may look at it two ways. One way is that he wants to minimize any long term damage so it doesn’t hurt his draft selection. If that is the case he wouldn’t opt for surgery. Or maybe he wants to improve or retain his draft standing by demonstrating he will do whatever it takes to get healthy quicker if he is hurt. Depends on the player’s mindset.
