It was a wise COACHING decision not to let Ameer play further against Purdue. Looked like he could have gone back in after the brace and some treatment, but why risk it. Two weeks to get him ready for Wisky...

Gene Lydick

he is a special player if the mri was negative he will be in the lineup

Herbert Blackbird

Abdullah physical shape will help him recover right on time for the next game....GBR

Ron Bauer

Remember, Ameer is a very versatile player, he can be used as a decoy, a receiver out of the backfield, he's a darn good blocker. Imani Cross is also a very good running back, can't forget Newby either. Need I say more?

He is a strong willed individual and he will do everything to be ready.

Keith Petrie

I don't think it was that bad...atleast it didn't seem to be!

he needs to be 100 percent to be affective with his running style Wis 28-NU14

Stephen Johnson

I think Nebraska's defense will raise their play to compensate. Also the offense will mentally adjust. They all want to win.

MCL sprain to heal up completely in 2 weeks......no way. Unfortunately, it will bother him for the remainder of the season.

David Weaver

His freakish ability to stop and cut on a dime is what makes him who he is and even if he's close to 100% he won't get much practice and I guarantee that injury is going thru his head come Wisconsin game time. I really worry about him coming out and cutting hard the first time and re-injuring it but this time worse.

Do you support a direct compensation model for college athletes?

Compensation has always been tied to market value. These athletes are worth far more than they're being compensated, and that's been the case for over a century. Hence, they've been ripped off. I support salary, salary cap, and education on how to invest it in 401k style accounts.

Much more controllable, and much more equitable.

Everyone who already commented believes in the same thing I do.

Chuck Siegel

Compensation changes the entire dynamic of college athletics, and not in a positive way.

Robert Lloyd

They should be students and NOT professional athletes. If they want to get paid they can go pro. Personally, I believe they should cancel all sports in public schools and colleges though I love our Huskers.

Put myself through school in the 70's. They are getting for exchange of their athletic prowess what I had to work and save for. The two summers after high school I drove alfalfa trucks 12 hours a day 7 days a week. EARN IT!
