Tuesday video: Auburn’s Philip Lutzenkirchen, coach Gene Chizik talk road to recovery

Lutzenkirchen: “It’s something I’ve been dealing with almost a year now. The doctors pretty much said if I didn’t get it fixed and kept playing on it, the bones were rubbing together and I probably would have had to have a hip replacement before I was 25 or 30.”

Chizik: “Just a solid guy. He’s always around the team. Very positive, upbeat guy. One of the first we recruited when he got here … He’s a very selfless guy. That’s what going to make him very successful. It’s never really been about him.”
