No, it's longer than that. Probably 4 month minimum, depending on the procedure itself, before he'd be cleared for contact.
2018 Recruiting Thread

The tone of the article was uncertain in its prognosis. After rereading it, I would just call it shoulder surgery and let experts and time tell when Monroe will be ready to play,
Even so, that puts him at somewhere around the middle of April. He’d still have the whole summer to rehab and build the strength back before fall camp starts. Same for Ellison Jordan - if he didn’t have surgery and it’s just a bone break, he could easily be back in action for spring ball.
Edit - Middle of May, not April.

Although it would have been nice for Monroe to maximize his reps before Fall, the silver lining is that this gives Garret Taylor, Sutherland [and maybe Wade??] a chance to get more reps at safety in Monroe's absence.
Tone of the article? They have no information at all. Did you read the article? Here are the first couple of lines from the article.
Ayron Monroe, who was expected to start at safety next season for the Nittany Lions, underwent what looks to be a shoulder surgery on Wednesday, according to photographs he posted to his Snapchat story.
Penn State couldn't immediately be reached for comment on the operation, so there is no clear timeline for Monroe's recovery.
At any rate, I believe that we land Julius Irving. Follow my logic, who else could possibly replace a great like Marcus Allen (born in California) but a Julius Irving from California?
It's as if JoePa is up there pulling strings to get some famous sports legends version 2.0 for our safety position. We'll know for sure if we start recruiting a Willie Mays from California next cycle.

Yeah, it's not that big of a deal. It will affect his off-season lifting, for sure, but as long as he has a good result he will be fine in the summer.
Nah, JoePa would have asked why not recruit all of the kids between State College and California...
Except that Marcus Allen was born in Maryland, not California.
Julius Irvin's father was born in NJ. Not sure where Julius was born, I believe his jersey number is #2
Didn't think that I needed to specify which Marcus Allen, of the Raiders, who was born in San Diego. My OP was intended to just be fun, nothing more.
Joe was the best of all time but if there was one weakness in his recruiting it was at DB.
Ray Isom disagrees with you sir.
In fact, Ray is going to {HIT} you so hard, GOOGLE won't even be able to find you! LOL!!! ;-)
Irvin initially intended to select a university during the early signing period (Dec. 20-22) but postponed those plans.
This opened the door for Penn State to at least gauge his interest.
“I’ve been talking to them for almost a month now,” he told Land of 10. “It was definitely a great feeling to receive the offer.”
So why does Irvin consider this a “huge” development?
“I just feel much West Coast talent doesn’t get recruited to the East Coast, so for a program that I’ve been interested in to offer me is huge,” he said.
Irvin, the son of former All-Pro Los Angeles Rams cornerback LeRoy Irvin, said he has family in New Jersey but limited familiarity with America’s eastern region. Still, he doesn’t discount the possibility of eventually viewing Penn State as a legitimate contender.
“Could be a possibility. I would want to take a trip first,” he said.

Darren Perry. Paul Lankford, James Boyd, Mark Robinson, Adrian Amos, Bawoh Jue, Justin King, David Macklin, Kim Herring, Shelly Hammonds, Gary Wilkerson, Sid Lewis, Mike Zordich, Chris Sydnor, Harry Hamilton, Matt Bradley, Neil Hutton, Neil Smith, Bob Riggle, Tom Urbanik.... that is all I can think of.....
...because CJF would hope Irvin replaces Monroe this year?
Wasn't Franco's brother, Pete Harris a DB and also Harry Hamilton's brothers. Ron Dickerson was a good DB coach.
Doesn't mean much. Leroy Irvin was an Army brat, born at Fort Dix. Went to HS in Augusta, GA when his dad was stationed at Fort Gordon.
I was thinking insurance and depth at safety position
The only way that may happen is if he doesn't qualify for PSU and can for WVU. so not very likely. He will be at PSU or prep school. Maybe WVU lets him sign knowing he hadn't qualified yet whereas CJF won't allow a player to sign if it looks like they won't qualify.
If he has to go to prep school, what difference does it make to him if he signs or not? He still can't go anywhere other than prep, and his signature is not binding.
If this site is to be believed, SAB's problem is not related to admission; its related to his NCAA eligibility. Just because it's easier to obtain admission to WVU doesn't make that go away.

I asked that the other day in this thread. Everyone has a lot of recruiting info but that piece of information seems to be unavailable. I hope he qualifies and goes to PSU but WVU could be where he ends up.
He must have had too much hoopie moonshine in him....
SAB stated numerous times his desire to play with Parsons at PSU.
Would be extremely odd for SAB to flip Given how much he recruited (or at least said he did on social media) Parsons to PSU.
It's been said since this summer that it was extremely unlikely SAB was going to be able to qualify. Him "flipping" isn't the issue. He didn't really look the part at the UA all american game practices either.
I don't really care if SAB flips or not, he did enough getting Parsons to come back. He obviously struggles with school thats one major issue going forward. And I haven't been impressed with any tape. If he's a WR than he's buried deep even in this class if we get Enis and then more the next few years. If he's a DB he will take time to develop and not his favorite position.
Would seem early for Walker as HC can only take one in home visit. With him visiting Ohio later in the month and deciding on signing day, would think Franklin would take the visit later.
