I hope AU will stick with this young man if he is cleared to play college ball. Sounds like a gamer and we shouldn't turn away.

The need to sign Green has just become critical.

Whether he stuck with auburn or not this kid is a tremendous athelete and truly gifted in the sport of football. Not only his toughness as a player but he also seems very Christian and smart and an outstanding young man and student. We as fans never want to see a kids career in any sport go out the window before they have the chance to shine as stars of the game and display this gift before life really begins. Prayers go out to Jordan and keep your head high auburn will be there for you just don't give up!!! War Damn eagle Jordan!!!!

He seems very Christian? I dont get what you mean...
If he had been committed to Bama, guess what would be happening. Two sympathy letters - one saying they hate to hear about the compound fracture.
I sure hope he gets quality care. WDE.

I hope that Wilkins can keep a positive attitude and really work through this. We went through this with my son in his senior year of high school, and it virtually ended any chance of playing beyond high school when he tore his ACL and became bitter. Everyone reacts differently, and I hope Jordan goes on to become the next great Auburn RB.

My heart goes to this kid to sustain an injury like this, especially his senior year. Here's hoping for a fast and full recovery. War Eagle!

I expect Auburn to honor his scholarship regardless of the severity of his injury. I'll be sure to update his status and all of that early next week.

You expect "'Auburn" to honor his scholarship regardless.
Which indirectly answers my question within myself whether a new staff, if that were to be the case, would honor the scholarship offer of the Chizik staff.
Don't down vote me as if I'm implying Chizik won't be around. Its pretty apparent he will get the extra year.
I'm still waiting for the Shon Coleman moment this year. I was really hoping to see that young man break through and be a feelgood story. With the distance he is traveled thus far, I expect Coleman to only go further in life as well as football, the lesser important aspect of his journey.

most likely he'll probably be okay. If surgery is needed he'll end up in DR. Andrew's care and it'll be ok. Things are so different now than 10yrs ago. WDE Jordan we still want you to be an Auburn man, Football or not.

Hang in there Jordan. And by the way, whoever down voted this post just because it was tough news is a douche. They are bringing us the news we pay for you tool.

We needed someone like he used to be, badly. If he has lost a step, then I wish him the best elsewhere. Today, I noticed a sever shortage of talented football players in Auburn University uniforms. We are going to have to reload ASAP, if it is not the coaching staff that makes AU so ineffective. It may be the opposition that makes us look bad, but I tend to sense a lack of "all out effort". They seem to be playing like it is a scrimmage.
