BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana quarterback Tre Roberson will do anything he can to help his teammates win games, even if all he can do is point things out from the coaches' box.

That's where he was Saturday night when the Hoosiers lost to Ball State and that's where he's likely to stay the rest of this season.

Roberson spoke publicly Tuesday for the first time since breaking his left leg Sept. 8 against Massachusetts. The gruesome injury forced him to undergo surgery in Boston as his teammates traveled home.

Coach Kevin Wilson says a full recovery is expected to take five to six months.

But Wilson wants Roberson to stay involved this season and plans to keep him in the coaches box as much as possible this season.
