Read on another board Jaxon was injured in the scrimmage? Any Brownwood fans know how serious it is?

Sorry if this has been discussed in one of the other Brownwood threads.

Hey! You are right! I apologize! I got out of hand there. I was just trying to give Rocket a hard time. The kids should be off limits for sure when “us posters” are talking trash. Thanks, Skyking from bring it to my attention!:) Good post!:)

Yes, I know 1st. hand the particulars of this situation. However, confidentiallity laws do not permit me to talk.

I have watched him and he is hands down the best receiver in this part of the country.

Don't count on him to be on the field any time soon though.

It just stinks that his older brother has had to deal with all his injuries and now for him to have an injury like this his Senior year is a real bummer!! He has to hurry up and get that thing healed so that he can get to Texas and do what he does best...he has some work to do for the 'Horns!! :D

Jaxon is an amazing talent. This summer I had the pleasure of working around some of the 7 on 7 games. Jordan told me that Jaxon is better at that age than he was. Lets see if he progresses. On a side note, Jaxons return to the field wont be quite as far off as many of you think.;)

I sincerely hate for any kid to get hurt no matter how long he is out. Even if it is for 1 game that's too much.

But, at least Brownwood didn't lose him due to him transferring to Early (which is how they normally lose their good players).:D With an injury at least they know they will get him back at some point.

The only way this kid is on the field this year is if it is a fracture or a shoulder separation. It is either that or Bwd posters just trying to keep us guessing. Either way be glad when kid comes back. Bummer to go out before first game. :(

:kiss: Man, I was going to apologize for being classless, now it's changed to a warning. I guess I better fly right for a while. ;) ;)

Dang, Hop- what have you gone and done? I do appreciate you taking up for me!! I need all the help I can get! It gets kinda scary dodging all these bullets- heck, hand grinades and bombs is what they are!!! ;) I will need to wear my bullet proof vest and take a taser with me to the Meet & Greets this year just for protection....LOL
