JONATHAN CROMPTON TO HAVE SURGERY ON THROWING ELBOW

I sure don't like the sound of this:

Tennessee junior quarterback Jonathan Crompton is scheduled to undergo surgery on his right, throwing elbow shortly after spring practice concludes.

The procedure is to remove a loose particle and has been deemed minor by doctors.

The recovery time for such a surgery is three to six weeks, meaning Crompton should return to full participation by early June when UT begins its summer workouts.

Okay, so it's "minor," but missed time is missed time. Does this turn up the heat on a potential QB controversy brew cycle?
