If he didn't show symptoms of a concussion, there was no reason to keep him out. It is often difficult to tell if a nose is broken without imaging.

Yeah. I know that Rip Hamilton basically got so used to it that he kept it on long after his nose injury. I can't think of the specific player(s) but I know I have seen players just ditch the mask due to visibility/comfort/whatever and play with the risk of reinjury. Not to downplay the injury at all, but the nose is maybe the only broken bone you can play with and a reinjury wouldn't really set you back significantly. It would just be repaired the same way.
Certainly seems like Izzo put him in to be an ‘enforcer’ knowing that him fouling out wouldn’t impact anything.
I think we get your stance ion this.
I broke my nose taking an elbow in a pickup basketball game as a student. Went to the clinic right away but they said I had to let it 'heal' for a few days before out-patient surgery. They put me under and reset it (basically re-broke it). To avoid that, I would've had to reset it almost immediately after the incident, from what they told me. It was sore for a while, black eyes, took a couple weeks to heal. Definitely felt it whenever I ran or jumped.
All that said, I wasn't a D1 athlete and all-American candidate in the middle of a season. I'm sure the medical attention Ayo gets will be a little better than mine, and a little more expedient.
okay. I wasn't sure if he had surgery for sure or not. Thanks for the info.
My nose was broken in two places, a deviated septum. They put me under and put what looked like a tuning fork up my nose to 're-break' it to set it properly. No cutting.
i don’t think he’s out till the tournament right???
I'm guessing that he's able to continue conditioning, but it's the potential of getting hit in the face again that's the concern.... especially if surgery was involved. The big picture is the NCAA Tournament. No sense in risking a setback that would put that in jeopardy. The chance to win the Big Ten regular season ended Tuesday. These last four games are for tournament (Big Ten and NCAA seeding). Best to be cautious, live with the results and focus on the big picture.
If we know one thing about Ayo, he is as tough as a two dollar steak.
When he's ready to be back, he will be...and the whole NCAA tournament field is gonna feel him.

Yeah. Thankfully I was totally under the whole time. The doc showed me the tool, and explained the procedure after I came to (or before, it was all kind if fuzzy).
For one guy? We are incapable of playing if one guy isn't on the floor?
Guess what, he ain't gonna be there all season next "year".
Anyway, they are not going to move the date of the start of the B1G Tournament, so postponing at this point is futile.
I don't think we're beating Wisky without Ayo unfortunately. That would put us in the 4 spot.

But the whistle had already blown. That is my biggest issue with it.
Noticed in Kedric Prince tweet he used phrase “facial injury” rather than broken nose. Wonder if that means anything?
we are fully capable of doing so. Also ayo will be back for the last two, so more than enough chance to win one of those games

This was sarcasm and a jab at Michigan. Sorry for the confusion.
Terrible post. You may need to take a few days away from here. You sound idiotic. I think we'd still be pissing and moaning seeing as our AA has a broken nose and is out.No one would be "pissing and moaning" if we had won the game, or if DMW had taken out one of the Spartans with a hard foul, which I kind of wish he had.
I hope you're right.
