I realize that they don't play the same position but it means that Harris will get more run in the beginning of the season. That part of the injury is not a bad thing.

We sure have a lot of injuries for having the finest S&C Coach and recovery room in the country.

I'm not saying our facilities aren't top notch but I've never heard another P5 coach, AD or recruit coming out of an official saying they had the second best only to UIUC.
Agreed. Better S&C probably prevents RJs appendicitis and the pink eye debacle.... outside of guys getting hit in the head the last few years I think we've been pretty injury free and I'm not sure how we prevent those injuries.

Luke will live at Ubben with Athletic Trainers 24/7. TA's will bring his work to the recovery room, and chef his food. He will be back for Friday night's exhibition...EI at the very latest.

If not, we need to reconsider our facilities again.

What a dumb, uneducated opinion this is. It's sports, $hit happens
Certainly does. Nobody that has played a sport at a high level with any effort at all has faced some sort of injury! Same with the police and military. I never planned on getting hurt, nobody does, but it's part of the gig!

S&C doesn't do anything for broken bones or concussions. Come on, man. S&C can reduce injuries to muscles and ligaments, though, and we haven't seemed to have many of those in recent years.

You get their scalp muscles more exercise so they pad the skull more, of course.

Loyalty, Loyalty. You've let me down, which is admittedly rare. But with LG now injured, I was expecting at least 100+ breakdowns on how to reapportion the minutes played per game!!! We must be laser focused on this board! Coach needs help! C'mon!

This is giving me PTSD to the ankle sprain I had for entirety of Fall 2021, soon followed up by random inflammation of bilateral knees, Winter of 2021-2022.
This while I have a pinched nerve in my neck that makes my left hand tingle periodically. I'm usually the youngest person by far when I've gone for cortisone shots to help it.

Mea culpa. I knew I was going to be been stuck on an all day zoom and was about 90% just looking for reactions to liven things up. 😎

Yes I realize that most injuries in sports (and old age) are unavoidable but I do think that most P5 programs think their own S&C programs are at the top. I’m not sure how you could quantify results but I would think that it’s more than just taking their word for it.

Yeah, but ours actually IS the top. That's the key difference you're missing.

For those of you looking for the upside, there is no upside for the team. Tough luck for the kid. He's a hard worker who makes his teammates better. Good(e) luck to him in his recovery. I hope he's back in time for our 2nd half run thru the B10.

He probably is, but who knows. All I care is that recruits love his plans/programs and he's a noticeable draw for the program. He's featured on visits, not just someone who's there. That's more than enough for me to appreciate.

When I was in undergrad I only knew about the S&C coach cuz he was a bit of an @ss to us. Fletch has made a name for himself because of his experience and outcomes.
