Hilinski To Undergo Arthroscopic Surgery to Repair Meniscus

University of South Carolina quarterback Ryan Hilinski will have arthroscopic surgery to repair a small tear of the lateral meniscus in his left knee, it was announced today. The actual date of the surgery is still to be determined. Media reports stating that Hilinski suffered a torn ACL are completely erroneous. (VIEW ARTICLE)

That might explain the reason some of his passes were off target, he couldn't follow through with his left foot!

He should be there for spring ball, all rehabbed and fresh! Glad it was better than initially thought.

definitely explains a lot of his accuracy issues and complete lack of mobility post georgia, but its sad we couldnt get another option ready or ryan playing on one leg was the only option.  im also not sure playing under these conditions did anything to help him develop, but we''ll see how he comes back when healthy.  the other issue i have is i dont necessarily buy the logic of since you couldnt make the initial injury worse that youre perfectly fine to play due to mobility and compensating for that initial injury. 

the lateral meniscus tear is the more serious meniscus injury.  while they say theyre repairing it if its only a 6 week recovery im wondering if theyre actually just removing it.  removing it allows for quicker recovery but can potentially open up to more long term knee problems.  lateral tears also are more likely to have knee swelling and pain post procedure. 

in 2014 during clowney's rookie year in the nfl he suffered a lateral meniscus tear, came back in 6 weeks and eventually needed microfracture surgery in the offseason.

  Yeah, after the Jawja game he never really threw off of his front foot the rest of the year.
