due to health issues. Below is what he posted on InstaGram.

Flo had him ranked #9 in their most recent 157 rankings. Here's hoping he returns to full health, can successfully rehab, and get back on the mat.

 
Not sure why, but the text of his InstaGram post doesn't seem to be in my previous post. Here's what he posted:

"It Is With A Heavy Heart That I Have To Announce I Will Be Medically Withdrawing From School This Semester With The Intent To Hopefully Return As Soon As I Can. My Dad Always Told Me That Money Is Paper And Only In Good Health Do We Experience True Prosperity. Health Issues and Concerns Have Made Me Step Away From The Sports I Love And Now The School I Have Always Dreamed About. It Is Sad But Without Struggle Their Is No Glory. I Know My Parents And Everyone Who Really Knows Me Will Truly Comprehend How Hard This Decision Was For Me. As Of Now The Future Is Uncertain But What Is Certain Is That The Realest Will Rise Again. Once He Gets Better.Much Love, God Bless"
 
Every time I hear a story like this, Eric Hess comes to mind. I hope this is nowhere near as serious.

I wish the best in life for him. It sucks walking away from a sport one loves.
