The timeline to return for injured Indiana quarterback Kurtis Rourke is coming into focus, as sources told ESPN that Rourke's «prognosis has improved» after he underwent surgery on his injured right thumb Monday.
The successful surgery provided some clarity on a potential return, including optimism that he could be back for Indiana's game at Michigan State on Nov.
2. Rourke is still doubtful for No. 13 Indiana's home game against Washington on Saturday. Rourke has led Indiana to a historic 7-0 start and stunningly ushered them into the conversation around the College Football Playoff.
The school announced that Rourke is out «indefinitely» after he injured his thumb in a blowout win over Nebraska on Saturday.
