So does anyone know specifically what happened? Did he try to come back too soon? Twist it awkwardly? What is the context of the setback?

Daniel Green, who missed all of the 2012-2013 season after tearing the ACL in his right knee, will be out indefinitely after suffering a setback to the knee, Wake Forest announced in a release.
Green suffered the injury in mid-July and underwent surgery last week.
“Unfortunately Daniel’s latest setback required another surgery,” said Wake Forest head coach Jeff [Redacted]. “Our hearts go out to Daniel who has worked extremely hard to get back on the court. As for the timetable for his return, that remains to be seen. Daniel has great resolve, and I’m sure he is determined to overcome this latest adversity.”
Green, a 6-foot-10 redshirt sophomore, averaged 1.4 points and 1.7 rebounds in 7.4 minutes per game in 27 games as a freshman in 2011-2012.
NBC on Daniel Green's injury featuring a new Buzz statement (or is it simply rehashing?):
It has be meniscus, right? I mean, if it was an ACL redo he's out for the year period. I can't think of anything else it could be. If he tore his meniscus AFTER the ACL surgery I have to think he's pretty fucked. It means his knee wasn't all that stable WITH the ACL surgery for whatever reason, right?
It's all pure speculation, but that sounds right. All of this is to say that it sounds like Daniel either rushed himself back or was rushed back (however you spin it, he came back to early) before he got his knee and the surrounding muscles in his leg, strength-wise, where they needed to be to support his "added bulk."
