Former Badger Ikegwuonu Injured After Declaring For NFL Draft
Former Memorial High and Badgers star Jack Ikegwuonu was hoping to be selected in the upcoming NFL draft, but it is being reported that he has suffered an injury that will keep him from playing in 2008.
Ikegwuonu left University of Wisconsin-Madison after his junior season to enter the NFL draft, but his injury will delay or possibly derail that dream.
It's being reported that Ikegwuonu suffered tears of both his anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his knee. The injury means he won't be playing football in 2008.
Apparently Ikegwuonu was pulling a weighed slide when his knee buckled.
Since he has declared for the NFL draft, he can't come back to play for the Badgers, and the injury will discourage any NFL team from drafting him, at least early, on April 26 and 27.
