On my way out of the stadium I saw the med heli which is concerning

u/Headweirdoh Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

Man I feel so guilty for leaving early. I was on cloud nine, only to come home & see this shit.

u/rhinosteveo Texas A&M Aggies • Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 10 '23

I was worried it looked like a neck injury. Really hope he’s okay.

3

u/RamenRavisher Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

All early reports are looking promising. Looking like it’s not too serious. GG A&M brother. Best of luck to you guys rest of the seaso .

u/rhinosteveo Texas A&M Aggies • Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 10 '23

That’s great news.

Also if y’all wouldn’t mind running the table so that we look a little better, that’d be appreciated

Mario Cristobal on Kam Kinchens: “So far reports that we have on Kam, everything seems to be relatively normal. We’re going to head over there right after I get done with a press conference and see how he's doing. But it seems like we're gonna be fine.”

This sounds promising, prayers up.

u/Im__Ron__Burgundy Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

Just hopping on the top comment, Cristobal said early reports are good and things are “relatively normal”

Best case scenario being a severe concussion is not a great situation to be in, but hopefully some of what we saw was the overhaul in response towards head and neck injuries at that stadium after Tua's issues last season.

u/ndkjr70 Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

“best case scenario being a severe concussion” why say something that is just blatantly incorrect?

7

u/zeusmeister Miami • Georgia Southern Sep 10 '23

I think all the guy means is that hopefully it’s just a bad concussion and not a career ending or life threatening neck injury. And hoping for a severe concussion is weird, but not when given the alternative.

u/ndkjr70 Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

the phrase he used was “best case scenario being a severe concussion”, which is silly. there are plenty of better scenarios.

u/ThaCarter Miami Hurricanes • Indiana Hoosiers Sep 10 '23

Thank you.

u/Inconceivable76 Ohio State • Arizona State Sep 10 '23

Oh, that’s wonderful news.

u/desyhope Miami Hurricanes Sep 09 '23

Feels weird to hope for a concussion, but it seems better than a serious neck injury. I just hope he’s okay and it’s the worst part of sports.

u/CanetheCorgi /r/CFB Sep 10 '23

Heard he was able to have control of his extremities which is good

19

u/GoldandBlue Notre Dame Fighting Irish Sep 10 '23

If true that's terrific news.

I didn't see anything about movement, but Mario said things were "relatively normal" https://twitter.com/Manny_Navarro/status/1700663769557262787?s=20

u/CanetheCorgi /r/CFB Sep 10 '23

Reading reports from Mario’s presser

3

u/ACABincludingYourDad Sep 10 '23

They said it on the broadcast. He put his hand up and was talking to staff.

2

u/Nata901 Sep 10 '23

I guess the best news is if 'all clear' then just a stinger and not even concussion?!

1

u/desyhope Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

Fuck. Yes.

A concussion is definitely better than him being paralyzed wtf are you talking about

20

u/AstronautWorth3084 Sep 10 '23

Actually no I would say that a concussion is better than being paralyzed why are you guys so fucking stupid

9

u/southpluto Sep 10 '23

We know what you mean but if the alternative is like paralysis, yea a concussion would be a better outcome. Lesser of two evils

Doesn’t feel right to celebrate the win

u/Revolutionary-Swan29 Miami Hurricanes Sep 09 '23

The vibe is off. It hurts.

41

u/agentb719 Miami • Mississippi State Sep 10 '23

definitely, I'm not even excited about beating a ranked team after that injury

22

u/darijabs Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

Even when we win we lose. It’s a canes life 😞. Please be ok Kam

u/Ducksaucenem Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

Ya, my house was so hyped before that. Something’s are bigger than football.

1

u/Sticketoo_DaMan Florida State Seminoles • ACC Sep 10 '23

Y'all spanked that ass tonight. Try to enjoy the afterglow.

2

u/RamenRavisher Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

You’re a real one, my friend.

1

u/Sticketoo_DaMan Florida State Seminoles • ACC Sep 10 '23

We can talk sh*t about each others' teams all we want. I don't want anyone having their career ended in a CFB game. Not even the <eye twitch> <cough> Gators.

22

u/A_Roomba_Ate_My_Feet Florida State Seminoles • USA Eagles Sep 10 '23

Heard about the injury. Hope it was just a temporary thing and that he'll be fine. Scary stuff.

25

u/hobbystuffsyeah Texas A&M Aggies • TIAA Sep 09 '23

i stopped rooting for us when he went down. y’all deserved that win at the very least.

3

u/RamenRavisher Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

All reports say he’s going to be good. GG A&M bro best of luck rest of the season.

2

u/hobbystuffsyeah Texas A&M Aggies • TIAA Sep 10 '23

it's gonna take more than luck to save us, GG and good luck against fsu later in the season

2

u/RamenRavisher Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

You will beat Bama just watch.

I know it’s not what you expected out of the season but you will have your fun, trust me.

2

u/SNjr Florida State Seminoles • The Alliance Sep 10 '23

Any word on him? Always upsetting when you see a player go down like that

3

u/KingCarbonX Miami Hurricanes • Team Chaos Sep 10 '23

The medical chopper just landed at the stadium a few minutes ago.

2

u/SNjr Florida State Seminoles • The Alliance Sep 10 '23

Oh man, prayers for him and his family

2

u/Jetski_Squirrel Florida State Seminoles • Bacardi Bowl Sep 10 '23

Wait, what happened? Watched most of the game except for the last 2ish minutes

4

u/GordaoPreguicoso Miami Hurricanes Sep 10 '23

Him and another player made a tackle together and everyone else got up but him. They wouldn’t show the replay and it took a long time to cart him off the field.

3

u/Jetski_Squirrel Florida State Seminoles • Bacardi Bowl Sep 10 '23

Well fuck, that sucks

1

u/TheCalvinator Texas A&M Aggies • UTSA Roadrunners Sep 10 '23

Hope he's alright, awful to see that happen to anyone.

u/Downtown_Ad4580 Miami Hurricanes • FIU Panthers Sep 10 '23
