Mertz's ACL Injury Halts Texans QB Dreams | College Basketball News
Description

Once a breakout star at Wisconsin with record-setting stats, Mertz’s consistency and durability have been his Achilles’ heel. With time running out in Houston, his path to stardom is suddenly clouded by injury after injury.
