Injury thread

So many years of soft practices and went the extreme opposite direction coupled with bad luck. Odds are some adjustments need to be made in the workouts & prep to focus on injury prevention but it's doubtful it can all be simply blamed on Feld.
I thought the same exact thing a bit ago thinking about all our injuries. May have gone a little too far in intensity considering how soft we’ve been for years.

Mario has to sit with Feld & Ronaghan to make some adjustments. Practice needs to be tough & intense but more instructional than anything, can't have our team looking like an Army infermery.

This is why this board drives me crazy. Any real fan who pays close attention would notice how depleted we are.

And yet, I have been yelling this at my screen the last 18 hours as these mopes keep complaining about how bad we looked.

As currently constructed, we are a slightly above average ACC team. We don't have the roster that would allow for the loss of 3 top RBs, 3 top OLs, 2 top TEs and several key people on defense. Anyone expecting the offense to dominate with all of those people missing is simply not paying attention.

The penalties are frustrating but that has been an outlier compared to other games this year. Way too many of them were procedural errors on the OL. So even there, the depletions and shuffling hurt us. There were several false start penalties that were simply an out-of-sync snap count from a back up center. Frustrating but understandable and correctable.

We had an away game in hostile territory and came away with a win with a severely beat up squad. You have to learn to win ugly before you can learn to just win. Just take the win and hope we get healthier down the road.

What I saw yesterday is a team that can get better. Which after the MTSU disaster is saying something. That game looked like a team that was hopelessly flawed beyond any hope.

I am sure some will call me a "slurper". Knock yourselves out.

As best I can tell, this is how it went down today:

Parrish (DNP)
Chaney (DNP)
Citizen (DNP)
Restrepo (DNP)
George (DNP)
Redding (DNP)
Arroyo (DNP)
Mallory (left the game injured)
Nelson (DNP)
Clarke (DNP)
Olawuseun (DNP)
Steed (DNP)
Stevenson (DNP)

Might be missing some...

Brashard left also late 4th shaking his head. Mario pulled him immediately
 
Yikes. Looks bad when it’s in one post. The issue is the injuries are to the best players at their respective positions. Best receivers tightends backs corner center

What I tried to say yesterday. Ppl aren’t realIzing how much talent we have out. It’s frustrating how the season has gone but you can’t discount all the injuries the coaches have had to deal with. The team keeps fighting and hasn’t given up. Mario is doing his best to build this thing but we just don’t have the depth. That is going to take some recruiting classes and some good portal players
