Louisville, Ky. - "After looking at the X-Ray and consulting with our team doctors, it was revealed that Scott Long suffered a broken bone in his foot and will have surgery in the next couple days to aide his recovery.

I'm uncertain at this time how long he will be out of action. I've had players with similar injuries respond quickly, and it's my hope that Scott can respond quickly in this instance. We wish him a speedy recovery, but we are lucky to have capable depth behind him to pick up the production in his absence."
