Tucker tore his ACL last year in the grid. Sat at all last season. Worked hard to get strong and faster and come back. Was feeling well and doing well when lightening struck twice and he has retorn that same knee. He was hoping to put a brace on and try to salvage this season, but his meniscus was too damaged to risk further injury so he will have surgery in a few weeks. To say he is devastated is a understatement. He's no quitter. He has a great attitude and will be back next season.

I remember last season after he had surgery, we were attending his younger brother's middle school game at Knox Central and some of the high school's coaching staff were helping officiate the game. At the halftime some of those guys said some of the most encouraging things to him and I will never forget it. It really helped him. You'll never hear me say a foul thing about the Knox Central Coaching staff. It meant so much to a young man who was down and out. Classy bunch. Thanks for asking about him. His heart is broken but not his spirit.

hopefully he will make it back and stay healthy for next season!

I for one truly believe things happen for a reason, and someday we will all find out the reasons. I wish nothing but the best for Tucker and I hope and pray everything works out for this young man,,,We at KNOX truly respect a true warrior and Tucker is a WARRIOR...God Bless...:redboxer:

I have not posted much on this topic as I know it is a very sensetive one to you and your family......but I will say this:

Everyone in Harlan County knows that you, your family, and Tucker has worked every minute of every day for the betterment of Harlan County football and our program would not be no where near what it is without you.

I will never understand why this had to happen once let alone twice....but here is to wishing a speedy and permanent recovery. Black Bear nation loves you, your family and that kid and will forever!
