Kia is out indefinitely with a torn ACL

Hi all,

Well, it looks like the injury to Micah Kia is not good. I was really hoping to see him "turn it on" this year and give our team a good 20-25 plays at guard this year... I think a platoon of Hasiak and Kia would have helped both players, and our team a bit. Well, at least if Sua'Filo really does go on a mission next year, Kia could step in...

Damn it

I had a feeling this was coming. That’s crap! Get well soon Micah!

Terrible news.

He’s definitely out for the season. But for the first time in a while, I’m not freaking out over the news of an offensive lineman going down. We finally have some depth at guard with Hasiak, who was likely going to be a starter anyway. Now he will have to step up and give us some stability at the position. I’m confident he can do that.

Yeah, this news blows...

Starter – no starter. Depth he could have provided would have been very useful…

I heard

they were talking about moving Courtney Viney to Offensive Line to provide depth.

Very sad for Kia

I hope his surgery and rehab go well.

Silver Lining?

XSF goes on Mormon mission next year…. and Micah Kia is still eligible to play because he can take a medical redshirt this year.

I'd say so

but if we land Seantrell Henderson (sp?) he still may not start…
