There hasn't been one scintilla of decent information on this board in about two weeks, so anybody who has even a single fresh fact on Murray, Skal, Humphries, Poythress, Briscoe or any other player, or who has any real insight into dirt on a hated opponent, or who has a credible piece of information about 2016 recruiting, please post it here.

Mods: Feel free to fold this into the Murray, Humphries, Skal or 2016 recruiting threads.

well he tore his ACL back last December the day before the UNC game at Rupp arena. ACL repair for a run and jump athlete is usually 8-12 months from the time of the surgery depending on recovery and tolerance to athletic activity. Being as how it's currently August, and 8 months removed from surgery, I'd say he's close to the end of his rehab. I'd guess he's at least able to run and probably even jump at this point.

Thank you.
 
Even if Alex is close to being fully recovered, i say we lock him up and keep him off his feet for another month or so. He is going to be a very important part to being as good as we all know we're capable of being. Jk. Kind of. Not really. Keep him off his feet!
 
@JasonSpear What happens when an inner shell electron is knocked out of orbit by an incident photon? What is that phenomenon called?

Alex Poythress is working with an expert, the percentage doctor, to fix his shot. Video linked.

i have no idea
but i am going to take a guess that may or may not be in the ball park
only factoring in what you do for a living, i am going to guess that x-ray is in there somewhere

@mebeblue2 An x-ray exposure consists of many photons traveling at 186,000 mps (speed of light). Sometimes a stray photon can strike an electron and knock it out of orbit. When this happens, a mutation can occur (think cancer). It's called the photoelectric effect. That was my nerd post for the day. You're observant as heck though! Props
 
@Jason Spears, you know everything, so can you explain this scientific anomaly? It's baffled scientists for decades yet somehow given me great hope.

The answer to that question is piles of cocaine.

haha, had to dig deep. Been a long time since rad school. I could still be confusing Photoelectric Effect with Compton Scatter. One is inner shell electron, the other is outer shell. Plus, I'm just a nerd. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
