Today, not long after having had my college volleyball scholarship confirmed, I broke my ankle after stepping on and tripping over a toy my baby sister had left out. No scholarship and no college whatsoever now. FML

im OP.and the break was bad enough that the scholarship was revoked. im not gonna be able to play volleyball for a few years due to ligament damage. im an outside hitter and i wont be able to jump. i could switch to libero but i wouldnt even manage to red shirt. my grades are not high enough for academic entrance

Something like that happened to me to. Got a scholarship for baseball, a week later BOOM! torn rotator cuff.

Ankle injuries rarely heal anywhere near completely. So many things to tear, scar tissue buildup, not to mention the recovery time required is insane so no one sits on their ass the whole time.

Well, that just don't seem right...where something relatively minor like this (as opposed to, say, having your foot severed) can screw up a person's entire life...
