Coach's comments post-MRI were more encouraging than pre-MRI.

He used the phrase "appears to be very serious" on the Jason Bryant podcast. He did not describe Mekhi's injury in the same light during his post-MRI presser. It sounds like there is hope Mekhi can rehab properly to compete at the NCAA tournament.

I'd bet they sign him up for ACCT, but then he does not wrestle... points -- Jeffrey4VT 02/17/2021 08:03AM

Hopeful Sign -- 132882Hokie 02/17/2021 10:56AM

Agreed, but I am hoping. -- Hokie Flyer 02/17/2021 08:59AM

This was my very optimistic scenario as well ** -- Palmetto Hokie 02/17/2021 10:49AM

I was glad to not hear the word "surgery" mentioned ** -- UpperQuad 02/17/2021 02:04AM

Agreed...let's hope it stays that way. -- Hokie Flyer 02/17/2021 08:54AM

Many a rehab has failed, leaving surgery the only option. ** -- HokieJay 02/17/2021 4:14PM

I am very optimistic -- Heathrow Hokie 02/16/2021 8:48PM

He can't skip and wrestle NCAAT. Must at least weigh in. ** -- Hokie Flyer 02/16/2021 9:24PM

I believe there is an exception if it is Covid related ... but that's it -- HokieToph 02/18/2021 3:04PM

Yes see my post to the rules 2 post below. COVID is exception, injury not. ** -- Hokie Flyer 02/18/2021 3:34PM

I did not know this -- Heathrow Hokie 02/17/2021 08:05AM

Link to NCAA rules on this inside. -- Hokie Flyer 02/17/2021 08:50AM

Let's just say I'm not optimistic after hearing that... -- EDGEMAN 02/16/2021 8:26PM

Um I head Post Season so my take is that no ACC and Maybe NCAA.... ** -- UTPr0sim 02/16/2021 7:28PM

Uh yeah, my thoughts too. ** -- HokieJay 02/17/2021 4:15PM

Your interpretation of postseason may be exactly right. ** -- dallasvt 02/16/2021 8:07PM

I would love to know Borst's status too. ** -- Hokie Flyer 02/16/2021 7:08PM

Yep, let's hope that young body heals up quick. -- Hokie Flyer 02/16/2021 7:07PM

Sounds like a significant separation but not a tear ** -- OIG Hokie 02/16/2021 7:04PM

You think it is shoulder or pec? ** -- Palmetto Hokie 02/16/2021 7:33PM

If we are making guesses, I am guessing bicep tendon. -- MC4VT 02/17/2021 09:56AM

Hard to say. I’m not a doctor but I’m guessing it’s his AC joint ** -- OIG Hokie 02/16/2021 7:55PM
