    I thought you were out for the night! I just went and got the article myself...and was coming here to post it.

    Awesome to see CJ is positive about his future. I hope it all works out for him.

    His leg was pretty messed up. Talk about a gash.

    Thanks for posting this - I've wondered how he was progressing.

    Glad to see that he's got that competitive fire still burning. With his attitude,
    if it's possible to come back he will.

    And I still think his story will make a great movie!

    Let him play himself.

    Then he'll be a 3 "sport" star.

    LSU!

    Hats off the the doctors for obviously saving his life, but to save that leg was a small miracle it would seem.

    He does have baseball to fall back on if he can't physically get to where he needs to be for football.

    That curve/slider he has going is deadly and MLB teams will need his services, being a left hander. And he'll potentially make a lot more money.

    I watched this last night too. I wish CJ the best of luck and I know he's a world class athlete, but with the injury I saw last night I have my doubts that he'll ever strap on the pads again. I hope I'm wrong and there is always baseball for him.

    why do you say that? much stranger things have happened. he might not be the same player he was pre-injury, but c'mon man! i think he'll do it.
