Anybody have an Injury Update

By Wolvmarine — September 2nd, 2012 at 12:13 AM — 70 comments
Just wondering of anybody had an update regarding the severity of injuries to players like Blake Countess or Kenny Demens (assuming Demens got injured since #44 Morgan moved to middle and #15 Ross played at WLB).

In all honesty, with depth concerns and history, why play your starting CBs on special teams? I'm sure Blake is one of the better speed guys for that unit, but you have so many guys on scholarship, I just don't understand why he is playing there regardless of his abilities/ history on ST.

Because points scored on kickoffs and punt returns count the same as point scored by your offense or defense.

However, when you have a secondary that is not very good,  you would think the coaches would protect what little assets they have on D.

i was at game and watched Countess on sideline.  After sitting awhile, he stood up and was running in place but never reentered game.  Dont think its a major injury.

BlueMarrow

I can tell you I saw a staff member repeat one part, and only one part of the knee physical exam on the sideline: The ACL exam. He compared right and left exams (standard) then whispered in his co workers ear.

I can also tell you that ACLs don't sprain, they tear. Regardless of what you may have been told in the past, especially in high performance athletes, ACL sprains are extaordinarily rare.

As you probably know, sometimes tears can be without significant pain, and running after the injury is quite possible. The instability is the issue.

I'm hoping for the best for the kid, and assuming nothing. Maybe the guy doing the exam was just a trainer, and did not want to get in trouble for telling Countess his knee felt fine.

I heard it's not a tear for Countess.  But no more info available.  Possibly back for ND.  I haven't heard anything about Lewan though.  And this is just info from more 'in the know' posters on other boards, so obviously no first hand sources.
