Maybe our young DL IS BEATING UP OUR OL?

[tc144509]

Why so many injuries on the OL? Could it be that our talented DL Recruits are beating them up in practice?

More likely a product of how many more plays are run per practice than in the past.

I truly hope that our OL is not being handled by true freshman DL who haven't even been through a Spring S&C program.

I agree wholeheartedly but never seen us have this many injuries coming out of fall camp...

Young dline men all have this problem early in fall camp--- keeping your feet.

Rex Norris rules of dline in practice:
Rule#1-- keep your feet. You can't tackle while lying down AND people will trip and fall over you or you'll fall on their ankles and roll them up.

But it's the OL that are sustaining injuries..?

He means that the young d linemen are falling down and the o linemen are tripping over them causing them to roll their ankles or they are falling and rolling over the o lines ankles.

 

[DHHorn]

Ankle injuries on the line happen when there are bodies on the ground and everyone is tripping or rolling on each other.

Tape their asses up and move'em back on the field...what the Old school Longhorns did in the 60's and 70's..Saxton got knocked out 3 times against Baylor and he still went back in to play, no Gatoraide, just water on San Jac practice field...

They are running 3-4 times as many plays in practice everyday as they've done in the past. The bodies are simply fatigued.

 

[NDAFArly]

So is there any updates on the injuries? Or are they the just tape 'em up variety?

Great point on # of plays, so buy more tape..

Tape can only make up for fatigued bodies for so long.

Tape can only make up for fatigued bodies for so long.

It could be day 1, everybody is fresh, with a rollover it doesn't matter.

When a guy falls down on the back/side of another unsuspecting player who is engaged with someone else there is nothing than can prevent it.

Rollovers are the worst.
