Or until he tears up his knee again right?

Early enrollment at Wake as soon as he completes this semester's course work? Might as well be close to home while re-habbing so you can eat mom's home-cooked meals while you sit in Danny's fancy new bariatric therapy tank!
 
this is going wayyyyy out there, and i know that, and i just want to say it upfront, but:

another acl tear could very well negatively affect his draft stock, to the point where you drop a tier due to that oft-injured label. yeah, he'll be good to go by next november, probably, but recovery time to 100% is usually, what, like 12-14 months? would he rather be eased into a team of all-americans that could very well be gelling without him in practice and in game situations, or would he rather be a team leader and unquestioned go-to playing for a guy who has overcome #kneeadversity to be drafted #1 overall, and win championships at every level? if he's healthy, yeah, i think no matter what choice he makes, he's probably #1. but if he needs to reclaim that spot? if he needs to return from an injury and reassure everyone that he's the unquestioned top choice? i really do think he'll have an easier time doing that by posting gaudy stats on a wake team that truly needs him, rather than by fading into that squad of other elite players.

anyway, MAKES YOU WONDER

Well hopefully Harry realizes now how shitty the doctors at duke are that they couldn't repair it correctly the first time.. time to give the guys at Wake their chance to do things right.
 
So this happens right after he's rumored to have chosen Duke, if that's not a sign he's choosing poorly I don't know what is.
 
That's terrible. I hope he can recover fully and have a good career in the pros.
 
Regardless of who he picks in a week, I'd never want for this kind of thing to happen to Giles. Really sucks for him, I hope he has a safe and speedy recovery.
 
He honestly should think about taking next year off and not playing anywhere. Get healthy and ready for the draft.

That's what I thought happened months ago....and that makes this entire saga much worse if HG goes to Duke. I can't fault Manning for swinging for the fences but.....it's going to sting badly. This was a pretty deep class. I sure hope HG's camp isn't claiming "being in the running for HG helps Wake".

Hold on. We're supposed to believe that a recruit soured on us because we were after Harry, while at the same time we are to believe that 5 stars want to play together?
 
A second knee injury will probably impact where he is picked in the draft. He could end up falling to the Sixers.

Sounds like Sasha Killeya-Jones.

Probably no coach I'd rather play for than a guy who made it in the NBA despite multiple knee injuries, while playing the same position as me.

Not to mention Childress as an assistant coach, who as a player missed a year due to a knee injury.
