Nebraska's injuries over the past few years.

One thing I was wondering about is the difference in the amount of injuries between before Field turf and after Field turf. Did they go up, down or pretty much stay the same, or are we seeing a different type of injury compared to the past.

I really do not know but I would think the injuries would be less severe on average than in the past.

Yeah..Me too..I played pickup games on the old carpet in the 80's and it hurt every time you bounced on the ground.. the ligaments in my hind legs were sore for days..I came back for a visit and played around on the Field Turf and there was a dramatic difference..I even fell down on purpose a few times 'cause it was sorta fun.

I think we were extra lucky before..seems like other schools were getting banged up worse than we were..I thought it was because of our weight room/trainers.

Now that others have caught up (facilities), instead of their injuries decreasing..Ours appear to be increasing.

Kind of fluky.

I blame bottled water.

To me the injuries aren't the problem it's the rehab side of things. Its probably the same at all schools but here it just seems if a guy gets hurt he never seems to get over that injury. It either nags him or he totally injures it again.

Other than Glenn who has had that problem?

Who?? well I can't remember every player that has gotten hurt for the last 3/4 years but it has been something that I started to notice back in 02 or 03 when that big turn over in the strength and conditioning circle, not when Epley left it was when Franky was still here and the team went like a full year without a dedicated strength coach and they lost a slug of trainers.

Will see what happens this year

I'm not asking for every player just a few. Octavian broke his leg, Dillard took a helmet to the knee cap, Wilson dropped a TV stand, hard to train around that kind of thing, it seems more like bad luck than bad training.

 
A lot of you already think I'm crazy but..........I think that the Kenny Wilson and the TV thing is a cover up. Billy C wants to redshirt him to keep him for another year.

Some eyewitnesses claim there was a second TV dropped from over on the grassy knoll, and that when Kenny dropped the TV, his leg went back and to the left.
