This has to be a conditioning, or over training issue. When injuries dessamate a team like they have this season it's usually under training or over training. Not say this is the issue with Alzee in particular, just speaking in generalities.

Look, you can blame a lot on Benford, but not the injuries.

Sadly, they give Benford an excuse for tge terrible job he has done with this team.

The odds are better that the players are faking injury so they don't have to be a part of this anymore than that they are over or under conditioned. And those odds are extremely low.

You're right. Benford is not out there hitting these guys in the knees. But if the rumored double practices are true this could lead to fatigued and over trained muscles which can lead to sprains and strains.

On the Benford issue I think most know I'm not happy with the results, but I don't blame everything on him.

I don't even remember Alzee limping around. This sucks.
Injured = Another word for suspension as to not anger the villagers?

Edit: this is an attempt at a joke. Failed or otherwise.

Some of you should seek counseling for your obsession with Benford. I am beginning to worry.

You've watched this man coach for several months and this is the first time you're "beginning to worry"?

The 'beginning to worry' was in reference to GMG'ers, not Benford. He is in his own category, but I tend to wait until the end of the season to reflect.

      JUCO players will have 4 years NCAA eligibility remaining

      The UT Athletic Department will just get treated as a corporation, saying funds received to it are voluntary, even if tax-deductible. And no politician will touch this, knowing how quickly they'd get hammered for hurting State U's football team and its funding.

      Transfer portal is killing P4 as well as G5

      You know, the playoff system to create a champion is better, but I still loved the way CFB was when conferences were regional, they had their champion tied into a specific bowl game, there weren't so many spare bowls featuring matchups that nobody cares about between 6-6 teams, and each season, the end of the year was talking about who had the better resume if this team loses or wins in their bowl game. I grew up loving the SWC and the Big Eight. Each year, the goal was to make it to Dallas or Miami and see where the chips fell. You were neighbors and friends with grads of those schools. I'm sure it was the same in the old version of the SEC and the ACC. It was just a fun time--and if things went great, the Cotton Bowl, the Orange Bowl, the Sugar Bowl, or the Rose Bowl would be for a national title. But if not, you watched them all because the games mattered in the big scheme of it all and they were on all day and night on New Years Day, along with the Fiesta Bowl, and then, later, the Citrus Bowl for the ACC Champ. Its a bygone era, no doubt, but the games had great coaches all over the country and players we got to know over the years. Yes, there was plenty of cheating, and yes, the big boys controlled the game, but it was more fun. Whatever it is we have today, I feel sorry for people who think CFB today is more enjoyable to follow and support. They probably think we are olds that have Good Ol Day Syndrome and that is fine. I can't really refute any of that. But it was a sport I and many of my age (50s now) loved and followed intensely. Today, we are dropping out very quickly, as we see the farce the portal and NIL are making of this great sport. Very sad...

      It's going to be interesting to see how the taxpayers see this (for state schools, N/A for private). Similar to the concerns regarding spending local tax $'s to build NFL stadiums, using tax dollars to run a minor league FB team may stir some controversy. I may be wrong since I don't keep up with all of the latest media payouts, etc, but I think there's not a lot of schools that actually make money on athletics (and this is BEFORE we start paying them directly). https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/research/Finances/2023RES_DI-RevExpReport_FINAL.pdf If UT essentially starts running a minor league FB team out of the school and makes money, should the tax payers expect a refund or cut in taxes directed to UT? What if they're losing money?
