Quarterback Kurtis Rourke is scheduled to undergo surgery next week to fix a torn right ACL — an injury he played through as he led Indiana to the College Football Playoff, agent Casey Muir told ESPN on Friday.He missed just one game in 2024 — due a thumb injury — and led Indiana to a school-record 11 wins. The Hoosiers lost at Notre Dame in the first round of the College Football Playoff on Dec. 20.The Indianapolis Star reported Friday that it was believed Rourke partially tore the ACL in July and fully tore it the following month. Per the report, Rourke didn’t let the medical staff at Indiana know of “any further discomfort or aggravation after the initial injury, and thus no new examination or imaging was conducted across the course of the season itself.”While playing at Ohio in 2022, Rourke tore the same ACL.
