Four months for an ACL does seem very short. I once did both my ACLs. Was back playing in 3 days.
I do not see how this would be a good idea; these things usually take a good year to heal and I would be worried to see him out there playing some six months or so after injuring it. I think he should be shelved until next season...
If he plays this season, it's a bonus as we all pretty much wrote him off. I trust the medical team to get this one right, but personally if there were any doubt I'd advocate not taking any risks.
