with screws and plates, it will take about 6 to 8 weeks of healing with his age, physical fitness and current treatments. I would expect him to be on the practice field in shells within 5 to 6 weeks running through no contact skill drills if he wishes. The fracture, barring complications, will be healed within two months. I could see Myles being on the field by mid October. He will be in a cast and sling for several weeks to stabilize the fracture, but will still be able to maintain some conditioning that does not require a lot of balance...speed walking, slow jogging, leg work on equipment, etc. I am no doctor; this info came from my friend who is an orthopedic surgeon and has dealt with many fractures such as this.

If max looks good.. and is running the offense well, Myles won’t come in and start just because his name is Myles

Not rooting against myles.. but I hope max comes in and fricking kills it

He is going to contend with Alan Moore’s record and sport the medical red shirt this year

I hate this for Brennan. But, if he's ever back on the field in an LSU uniform, this year or next, it means that Max sputtered and we needed relief under center. I'd much rather Max lead this team to the playoffs than for Myles to be back on the field for LSU to try righting the ship. Sad for Myles, and I hope the best for him, but it is what it is.

Haha how do you know what kind of fracture it is? Is it Proximal? 2,3,4 part fracture. Any of these he’s out for the year. Is it a shaft fracture? Maybe he comes back at some point during the year, but will not be anywhere close to game ready at all. Better just move on and act like he’s not on the roster.

Feels like 2011. You get a QB rolling with the offense just in time for Kentucky game to switch them out.

He’s a great competitor and I hope he has a speedy, thorough recovery. But I feel like he’s kind of frail, like Tua.

Brennan's brake was described as 'serious'. And obviously it was quite serious as the brake required surgery . He will not play another snap this year - period.

Myles can be a reserve QB for the last 5-6 games.

Now you can take all of that information and basically toss it in the garbage. What you haven’t factored into that equation is the fact that Myles is draft eligible and they won’t take that risk and rush him back.

I will take bets with anyone, He won’t be on the field until a minimum of November if that at all.

Really feel for the kid with this injury. After all he has been through, doubt he is going anywhere. He is committed to LSU. If Max is winning, it will not make a difference when he is ready; you can’t pull a winning QB. He might be better off taking a medical redshirt & start over next year.
He could be dressed & ready to go in case Max has an injury. Guessing he would put the helmet on, future be damned. You have to admire his dedication to the program.

I’d love to see it but I think that’s a lot of pressure to put on Brennan unless HE is absolutely ready. Even if he can work out some, it’s not easy to get back in Football shape with an injury like that.
