Injury Report. Can I get an injury report please?

Need one on Johnson and Johnson. I also need to understand what happened to Maurice Shakir? I read that Hunter Rogers started for him? Ouch??!!

 

[TeKEraider]

According to CRS show D johnson is out likely until late in the season. 3 linemen likely out. Collis is likely out.

What about Carlos and Shakir?

What about Carlos and Shakir?

I think carlos is out and Shakir is in. Shakir came in for the second half at Illinois.

from game notes:

The only announcement about injuries will be provided to the media each Friday. The list will state if a player is out, probable, questionable, or doubtful

 

[MTsumner92]

I do not like this policy of keeping fans in the dark all week. Frustrating and fan unfriendly.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Legally, nots sure the athletic department can do otherwise. I know there are pitfalls tripwires, that they have to be careful of to avoid issues with the federal laws on patient privacy.

 

[sWiley]

Legally speaking they CAN say whether the player is playing or not, I know that much for sure. They might not able to disclose specifics regarding his injury, but whether or not he will play this weekend or sit for the remainder of the year is fair game

 

[TeKEraider]

They typically do it on Thursday. Like I said earlier this season there is no injury report like the pros but CRS will typically let us know on Thursday who is or isn't playing. It's not set in stone like Shakir was going to be out last week but came in the second half.

Why tip your hat early and let the other team know who to prepare for. We as fans do not need to know every last detail of the game plan. Leave a little to the imagination. We don't need to help out the opposing team by spewing all sorts of inside info on message boards.

 

[TeKEraider]

I don't think its any inside info. Its just what he said on the radio already.

 

[MTBig Blue]

I think a lot of us knew the Johnson injury was a lot more serious than what they were leading on in the preseason. Wish we could give him a medical redshirt.

Haven't seen Christian Collis since the 'Bama game when he left the field with his shoulder drooping....

 

[MTsumner92]

What is Darius and Carlos's injury? The pros give out all kinds of information on injuries.

 

[TeKEraider]

They aren't going to say. This isn't the pros.
