Not long after taking the head coaching position at the University of Alabama, Coach Avery Johnson cautioned fans that this would be a tough season. That statement became even more evident on Thursday when the school announced that freshman Dazon Ingram would miss the rest of this season after breaking his left foot in practice during Tuesday’s practice.
“I am extremely disappointed for Dazon and his family,” Johnson said in a statement released by the school. “Dazon is a special, multi-talented player that we use in a variety of ways and he’ll be missed. At the same time, we are approaching this with a ‘next man up’ mentality.
