The best option is to expect him back in 9 months that way you are not pissed when he doesn't make it back in 6 months which is more unrealistic although possible.

Sorry, but you aren't being "realistic" if you completely rule out him coming back week 1 and having a big year.
I'm not even saying he will or I expect that, but it's certainly a possibility and maybe even likely looking at recent history.
