Go Gophers!!

I don't know how I missed this on Friday. I thought I'd kept on top of Rittenberg's blog.

This explains a lot:

Less than four months removed from a broken leg and multiple surgeries, Royston hoped to be ready for Minnesota's season opener, if not soon thereafter. The safety was rehabbing six days a week. His leg seemed to be healing rapidly, ahead of schedule. But then the bone growth stopped, and so did Royston's comeback attempt.

Those were some bad times for sure; the blessing is he will enter this season with no question of "when or will he be able to play."
