November 24, 20187 yr I did not watch the game, but saw the play in which Milton was injured. It is not pleasant to watch. The lower half of his right leg is not pointing the right direction after the play. Thankfully, St. Joseph's Main is only a couple of blocks from Raymond James Stadium. He was then transported to Tampa General and was in surgery the last I saw.
November 24, 20187 yr Does that conference have a title game? Yes. UCF will get a rematch with Memphis.
November 24, 20187 yr I caught the highlights of the game. That did look like a horrific injury for Milton and it will be surprising if he plays again, which is a shame.
November 24, 20187 yr Author No updates from UCF or TGH, this morning. Several orthopedic surgeons had indicated that the video confirmed a dislocation of the knee. With that comes restriction of the artery in the lower leg which will cause permanent muscle damage if not restored. The emergency surgery was to save his leg from being amputated. One surgeon on Channel 10 news, this morning, described it as akin to what happened to Zack Miller of the Chicago Bears, last season. Horrible thing to have happen.

I hate hearing about injuries of that magnitude to anyone passionate about what they do, whether it’s in sports or other things.
November 26, 20187 yr Author Reports are that the surgery was successful and Milton's status is "Good". Not sure what that means, but I am glad the surgery was successful.

Any word on if they plan on given a legitimate update as to the extent of the injury. I'm sure a lot of folks are curious. Hoping for the best.

November 26, 20187 yr Due to HIPAA laws, unless Milton, himself, OKs it, nobody can report anything about the status of his health. Understood. Just seems it has been less publicized than usual. But like you said it's up to him and he's been through quite a bit this weekend.
