Why do so many players get hurt in practice in the Strong ERA?

Injuries tend to feel a little worse and take a little longer to heal when you are on a losing team that seems to get embarrassed regularly.

Going 4-13 tends to do that to some people.

C & S  saving themselves for the NFL tryouts...if Wilcox is limited then that thought is prob a thing.

Sadly, McCloud gets hurt in every game so either his practices are limited or he just observes. Overall I havent seen much improvement in him this season. He has ability and prob at D2 he would be a star. He has no protection for sure but he may not be very durable. 

Practice? twisting ankles or knees would be easy to do for lineman. Of they are having live hits?? that could get some folks banged up. And yes, could be conditioning?? Saw a lot of D guys really huffing in last game of course, when your O is 3 and out every time you get the ball that doesn't provide the D with much of a break. When you see the O lineman huffing...you gotta wonder about conditioning. First quarter vs Memphis they were cranking but then Memphis adjusted and that was that...sameo. Would like to see what Rygol could do if he weren't running for his life every play. He shows some ability.  

Lastly, our season crapped the bed and now there are 17 seniors graduating. Of those some are key players so you gotta ask--are there underclassman who will step in and be solid? If so, where have they been this season? Many reasons but...We dipping into the transfer portal to bring in some P5 folks hopefully w/o a closet full of hangups. If recruits?? here we go again we are a perpetual rebuilding program.. And that's that on all that.

So is that a good thing or a bad thing?
