I know Willy's dad is just looking for some excuse as to how the world ended up screwing over his all-star son, but I'm gonna post this article anyway:

Interesting for a couple of reasons. First of all, the missed diagnoses. Korn had serious injuries twice that were misdiagnosed and/or mistreated, a trend that the writers on the site have been concerned about for a long time. Secondly, the kind of oblivious nature of the coaching staff and how they make decisions about who is going to be first on the depth chart. I tend to agree that the decision to plug Parker into the starter's role was made as soon as the Gator Bowl ended at the end of 2008, and the spring practice competition didn't matter at all. Parker was a great player but Dabo was just so enamored of him that it ended up ruining everything.
These opinions are not necessarily those of the Proprietors of Shakin' The Southland.

Article is another glaring indictment of Dr. Bowman.
Why this man still gets to treat our players is beyond me.
Confirmation of what I've heard
Bowers nfl doctor might have the same opinion.
Seeing Korn throw bombs in high school
and not be able to throw 30 yards in college proves there has to be something wrong. Between Batson and Bowman it’s amazing our coaches have anything to work with at all.
He threw a pretty ball in HS
wasn’t a ton of zip on it, but it was a high arcing pass that was pretty accurate.
Batson, Spence, Bowden, and Bowman are the ones responsible for him being a bust more than any fault of his own.
