F*ck me. If we’re not losing players to petty crimes, we’re losing them to injury. I know he went down on friday, but team physicians actually confirmed the extent of his injury today. (source: CDT)

Penn State linebacker Sean Lee will miss the 2008 season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Friday’s practice.

Team physician Wayne Sebastianelli confirmed the injury Saturday afternoon, adding that Lee, a second-team All-Big Ten selection last year, is expected to undergo surgery within the next 2-4 weeks and faces a nine-month rehabilitation process.

Luckily, Penn State will be able to plug in our younger players and Sean Lee can medically redshirt this year which could lead to a potentially dangerous defense in 2009. But losing Sean Lee will be tough. The leadership he brings to the field will not disappear. He will still be on the sidelines for all the games while he recovers.

I know he probably doesn’t read this, but we still wish him a speedy recovery and hope he is the last to fall to the injury bug before the first game this year.

  • heh, and in Columbus, we're losing them to shoulder injuries and weed. Nothing as national newsworthy as what's going on in Happy Valley, but isn't the offseason fun?

    Curious, I admit to knowing very little of Penn State's depth chart outside of the big names (like a Sean Lee), but what should us in Columbus know about Penn State's defense sans Lee? Who to look for/who needs to step up and so on?
