As the story develops surrounding the shooting of Nevada wide receiver Brandon Wimberly, the Reno Gazette-Journal reports that the talented athlete should recover and be able to live a normal life, but it is unlikely he will be able to play football again.  Wimberly suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen early Saturday morning.

Wimberly was expected to have a big impact on the field for the Wolfpack, but what is most important is that the young man returns to health as soon as possible.
