Willy Truitt's Doctor Reports Injury -From the desk of Dr. Tim Reis- I believe that it is my moral duty to notify the Cork Bowl Executive Offices of a condition that star QB Willy Truitt has been suffering through the past calender year. Mr. Truitt suffers from what we, in the medical field, call Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). What this disease consists of is: - inflames and damages connective tissue in any part of the body. Affects many joints, kidneys, and lungs. This is a complication from the surgery I performed on Mr. Truitt this past December. He has set backs in his recovery but believes that he will be fine by gametime. It is his right elbow, so don't look for it to be a factor as far as his throwing goes. I see it as more of a mental setback, than physical. I have gone ahead and cleared him for the game and believe that he will in no way will be a liability to the Corkbowl legacy. Sincerely, Tim Reis, M.D. Back to Player Comments Back to Cork Bowl 11
