I just can’t with this......Ty was literally my #1 reason to be jacked for this season. Ugh.

why?

Sad to see this for Ty. Here’s to hoping for a full and quick recovery.

Was very much looking forward to seeing him on the floor with the Illini. Hoping he still gets that opportunity.

Go Illini

Hope it’s not an ACL/MCL thing. Hoping he is able to come back at some point during the season

You gotta be kidding

Why can't we have nice things?

I hope to see Ty getting healthy soon. He is a very likeable player, especially after returning to the team post-redshirt season (something rare in today's game).

I will definitely buy some Ty merchandise to wear at the games this Fall.

why?

While maybe not the #1 reason, Ty is a total feel good story we don’t see much nowadays. He was a EDG fan favorite of many to begin with, then took a year off to better himself and actually stayed loyal to the beloved. I think most of us assumed he would move on. It would have been great to cheer for someone like that.
