No!!!!

Man, that’s a tough break. Had a bad feeling when they said it was indefinite. Hopefully that’s the last of the injury bug.

We are deeper than in past years thanks to the recruiting efforts of Fickell and company.

Wonder if he even comes back. I’d guess he declares for the draft in 2020

His existing tape is pretty great. He seems to have a way of convincing the opposing QB that he is gassed or beaten.

Well in the past an injured kid would usually want to return to school next year to prove he's healthy especially if he's a potential early-round pick. I wonder if there might be a chance of him returning at the end of the year for our bowl game perhaps. Hard to say if that would be enough wrt the NFL draft but I wouldn't write his UC career off yet. At this point, I doubt if even Wiggins knows. (edit) Fwiw, in his post-game comments, Fickell seemed to brush off any shot of Wiggins returning this year but did say that it will be great to have him back next year.

Sucks to lose him though, no matter if it's for the season or for his UC career. Sometimes it really does feel as if we are jinxed (and I say that without having heard an update on the RB situation yet - knock on wood). Luckily we've got some pretty good depth at most positions so it's next man up!

Wiggins is a big loss to the defense, but after last night it seems like we are in capable hands with Hicks. I know he whiffed on a tackle that led to a touchdown, but he seemed mostly solid in coverage last night. Perry Young will just need to step up and be the heart of the defense with Wiggins out.

If he wants guaranteed money he HAS to come back. Sure, there's a season's worth of tape, but just 1 season. As good as that season was I don't think that it's enough to get anything more than a Day 3 pick, if that.

S isn't that highly regarded to get him a pick before that.

I'm guessing he comes back to secure the bag - as the kids say - and showcase his ability to recover from injury and thrive once again.

He's going to have to prove he's capable of game shape first. I'd have to think he comes back if he doesn't play the rest of this year.

Agree. I’m guessing he is going to want to return to show his ability and that he is fully recovered. Otherwise he is likely looking at a late round selection without a guaranteed contract. It would seem better for him to return and show he is recovered and still the same player he was las year.

Has it ever been announced what injury Wiggins has sustained to his knee?

Don't think it's been said "officially," but there are reports he tore his ACL.

I imagine he would need surgery?

RE: Wiggins likely out for the year
That's why i was curious. Typically when you declare someone is out for the season there is more specificity to the nature of the injury, etc. Maybe it was so close to game time they just went low on it. I'm sure it will come out eventually. It could be he's getting more than one opinion as well.

if it's an acl, you don't need a doctor's opinion. feel bad for him. looking to build on a remarkable season. what would life be without setbacks? hope we don't come to miss the safety net

It was reported a few days ago that he had successful ACL surgery.
