"University of Arkansas junior running back Knile Davis sustained an injury to his left ankle during practice Thursday evening and is expected to miss the 2011 season."
"I am extremely disappointed for Knile," UA head coach Bobby Petrino said. "He is a captain who was incredibly focused on the upcoming year. His leadership throughout the offseason was significant in the development of this team. Our athletic trainers and medical staff are the best in the country, and Knile's mental toughness will be an asset to him during the recovery process. I am fully confident in the mindset of our running back group and their ability to perform."

His name has been brought up in Heisman talk and he was tough last year. Tough loss for the Razorbacks.

Huge loss. Dude was poised for a big breakout season IMO.

His breakout year was last year. He was ready to roll people this year. Huge loss for them and could potentially hurt his future as he missed most of his senior year of high school with a broken ankle.

Yeah, you're right. I probably should've said that he was going to vault himself into elite player status this season.

Could be wrong, but didn't he have an ankle issue his freshman season as well? Was it the same ankle each time?

Dudes a beast thats a big blow to the Hawgs.
