Terrible news for Pink who flirted with the NFL draft last season but decided to come back to shift from the corner spot to his natural position of Free Safety in hopes of improving his draft stock. The shift never happened due to Shareece Wright being ruled academically ineligible at the start of the season, which kept Josh at corner.
Josh has already had 2 torn ACL injuries at SC, the 1st against Arkansas in '06 in the season opener and the 2nd during '07 Fall camp after a year of rehabbing. This latest one will likely be a major setback for Pink's pro career since it will raise automatic red flags with teams.
To add insult-to-injury, the injury occurred on the last passing play of the last regular season game and Pink, who was playing press man coverage, got beat for the game-winning TD. The man has no luck.
Wish him the best. Hope he keeps strong and works his way to the league.
