Injuries…holler at me

[htownkidd]

I was told November at best right after the game and Lucas midseason. Then a couple weeks ago it didn’t sound as promising. Lucas is on schedule

That’s nuts, on a fluky freaky tackle too smh. Good thing is he will def be back I’d assume but honestly we can’t rely on the kid to stay healthy. **** XL is probably back too and EOC is probably the one to test the waters if he keeps this up. Crazy.

Do all of these injuries have anything to do with the new mix of out S&C staff?

I blame Swasey.

how about jaboree?

espn has him recording a tackle in their stats...is that a typo? i didn't know he played

Word on the street is they built a secret substation near the practice complex

Antoine definitely didn’t play. Any stats that list him are wrong.

Mack played TON. I’ll bet he played 40 snaps.

Thornton is borderline unplayable in the secondary. At or near the LOS he’s ok, anything in coverage he is abysmal.

I think this team is at its best with Lucas, EOC and Antoine at corner, Poyser and Bryce at safety, and Dunnigan at nickel. All fully healthy.

Preach !! I’ve been saying the same ! Once we get frederique Lucas and Antoine back .. slide BF3 back to safety and keep dunnigan at Nickel .. I think dunnigan has way more upside than Thornton tbh

It's time for the Cinnamon Toast Crunch shakes.

I don’t buy the “long season” reasoning. Indiana played 16 games last year. Ole Miss, Oregon and Bama all played 15. We are the only ones losing 2-3 guys every week.

no update from Mario on Joe Rose, says they’ll be evaluated this week

 

[gacaneaddict]

Mario isn't going to give you squat on injuries.

Lightfoot and McCoy are the 2 Im watching.

Even though McCoy finished I imagine he is hurting right now.

Im imagine UHealth will be exploring that shoulder deeply to find sowething they can cut on!

Unfortunately the S&C staff can't mitigate bad tackling form.

OJ was injured because he threw his shoulder at a guy that outweighs him by 40lbs. Lightfoot was injured because a teammate came in recklessly and crushed his arm.

It's the nature of the game - even at the NFL level tackling technique is generally atrocious.

Lol we got absolutely nothing and I’m not surprised at all. Now we will have to wait for the injury report in what, 10 days?
