This can only be the work of the Angry Iowa RB Hating God as the AIRBHG has turned its wrath on RBs across the entire Big Ten this offseason:

Fitz Toussaint - Michigan RB charged with DUI

Jordan Hall - OSU RB cut foot and out at least 10 weeks

Ralph Bolden - Purdue RB arrested for public intoxication after forcibly kissing a woman at a bar against her will

Silas Redd - PSU RB transfer to USC

Brionte Dunn - OSU RB charged with 2 misdemeanors and caught with someone else's marijuana

Montee Ball - Wisconsin RB attacked in unprovoked assault

Not to mention the extensive damage it has wrought on Iowa this offseason (Marcus Coker and Mikail McCall transfers, Jordan Canzeri torn ACL, Greg Garmon 2 misdemeanor charges for marijuana possession, & the De'Andre Johnson saga)

Nebraska better hide Rex Burkhead in a safe place.

Silas Redd transfered to escape the wrath that the AIRBHG on the rest of the Big Ten. Angry about his preys new found freedom, AIRBHG decided to strike on the highest profile RB in the league. 

In all seriousness though, I hope Montee Ball a speedy recovery and to be fully health by the time the season starts.

I wonder what the circumstances were. Is this a wrong place wrong time type of thing or is it a Monte Ball was sleeping with some guys girlfriend type incident.

Police report linked by Bruce Feldman says Ball was walking outside and was jumped, unprovoked. He reports he doesn't know his attackers.

These attacks have been happening in Madison for awhile now.  They seem to be random.  Of course, they may have picked the wrong victim this time.  I'm sure this will get the full attention of the police.

Don't they call him the wrecking ball or something? He needs to take a self-defense class from this guy:

Bielema says Ball has been released from the hospital. That's good news--sounds like this is not super-serious. Any time I hear "head injuries" I get nervous, but these must have been of the superficial variety.

Good news. Probably just took him to the hospital to cover their bases and make sure everything was alright.

Could still be serious enough to affect playing time... concussion or skull fracture... not necessarily serious enough to warrant admission to the hospital, but certainly could impact an athlete in a contact sport.  Hopefully it was just a cut that needed stitches or a black eye.

This is sad.  I hope Ball recovers fully and has a great season, except for the CCG when he faces us.  Then I hope he fumbles 4 times.  But other than that, I hope he's alright.

Glad to hear he's ok. What're the odds some Wiscy O-linemen wind up in "scuffles" in the coming months, I'd say roughly 5 of them
