Met his dad in Charlotte and he told me that his son had an atv wreck and has lost four of his fingers. He showed me the picture. Even though he retired I hate it for him as he was a DGD.

He has a robotic hand that he is learning to use.

Very sad to hear this. Fine young man and a DGD. Here's hoping for a much recovery as possible.

I don't think I'll ever forget that start to the UGA vs UF game where Stafford and Mass torched them on a quick pass for the long TD and set the tone for the rest of the game. Will always be a legend in my book and hopefully yalls as well. This was during the dark times of the uga/uf rivalry.

What? How is this not all over the news? I don't see anything about this anywhere.

I looked it up to and saw nothing on it. IDK but his dad sales Chevys in Charlotte and I was there with my daughter to assist her in buying a car. His dad was our salesman and I was wearing UGA gear so that brought it up. I quizzed him to make sure he wasn't blowing smoke. He stated his son retired from the NFL due to concussions which I already knew and he told us what his son was doing now which we knew from meeting him during the Belk Bowl. We showed him our pictures with his son and then he told us the story of his accident and showed us pictures of his new robotic hand. That's all I know. Seemed very legit. He did say the accident occurred while on a trip back to Athens with some of his UGA teammates.

I remember seeing him at the Mark Richt football camp, and Richt and Bobo were just watching him the whole time.

He didn't say when it happened but I assume it was far enough back that the hand healed and then rehabbed before going to prosthetics.


Here is a link to his dad's page. He is down near the bottom on the left side. Real nice guy. LINK

Perhaps Radi Nabulsi is on this board or someone else. Kinda crazy yall discussed this and then it comes out in a video with MoMass explaining what happened.

Wow. That sucks.

Unrelated - Why didn't dude from UCF do something similar?

Because everyone knows a handless man making tackles makes great headlines. He wants to get drafted and what better way to get publicity than to do with only one hand.

Plus he can get out of a lot of upper body workouts and just rely on his natural god given talents to get him a national championship (hahahaha) and the league.

That's awful. ATV's are death machines. I think every class in my high school had at least one student die from an ATV accident.
