Just got off the phone with my source and here is what I am allowed to report:

1) Tyler is doing much better and is feeling much better.
2) This incident occurred due to an unprovoked assault on Tyler. Tyler was out with his sister and uncle and was attacked for no reason.
3) The revovery process, because of the delicate nature of the injury will be a lengthy one.

Tyler and his family need our prayers and well wishes for a speedy recovery.

Moeller update: May be released today

I just spoke with a family member who wished to remain anonymous, but who said Tyler Moeller is "doing very well" and could be released from the hospital as soon as today.

The family member confirmed the injury occurred on a family trip to Florida, as Dispatch team sources had said, and that family members were present at the time.

Also, this person was confident that Moeller will play football again, it's just a question of when.

At the risk of redundancy, I can vouch for this as well. He's had to earn every inch, and I'm sure he'll claw his way out of this one as well.

Get well soon, Taz.

Thanks for the update H&G. Circumstances like these should remind us why we do not pass judgement until full details are available. Of course it wasn't on BP, but I'm sure somewhere Buckeye net fans were on a "barfight" banwagon...I'm glad we are above that here because this is obviously a wrong time, wrong place ordeal. This is really unfortunate and I'll be praying for Tyler.

Having suffered a head injury in February 2008, I can certainly sympathize with Tyler.

I'm still under doctor's care, taking medication, suffer from occasional severe headaches, and occasional mild loss of balance--and the injury seemed very minor at the time it occurred.

Head injuries can take a very long time to resolve.

I'm glad that this is being taken so seriously and I hope for the best for Tyler.

My youngest son has had seizures and is currently taking meds to control them.....scary, scary stuff.

Thoughts and prayers for Tyler & the Moeller family.

Who knows what the true story is, as it has not been address to the media by Ohio State or Tyler, but if ESPN is wrong in regards to this story it makes the kid look bad.

And, I imagine, the network will not even admit they were wrong (if they were wrong), blame sources, and just change the story.

Source: Ohio State linebacker Tyler Moeller likely to miss season with head injury - ESPN

Tyler Moeller, who was the Ohio State Buckeyes' likely 2009 starter at outside linebacker, is expected to miss the season after suffering a serious head injury during a brawl last month in the Cincinnati, Ohio, area, ESPN's Joe Schad confirmed Monday with a person close to the program.

That ESPN story has apparently been changed, and now states that he's longer a patient at the tOSU Medical Center.

Tyler Moeller, the Ohio State Buckeyes' likely 2009 starter at outside linebacker, is expected to miss the season after suffering a serious head injury last month, ESPN's Joe Schad confirmed Monday with a person close to the program.

Moeller, 21, was no longer a patient Monday night at Ohio State University Medical Center, according to a hospital spokesperson, who would not provide further details.

...

The Columbus Dispatch reported that Moeller hit his head on the ground while on a family trip in Florida, citing unnamed sources.
Other media outlets reported that he had been punched.

Bill beat me to it by less than a minute. I just had flashbacks of the trivia contest.

What I should say is I hope above all else, that Ty gets back to %100 health. I was really looking forward to watching him play full time this year, but there are obviously much more important concerns right now.
