In 2012, BYU had its top 2 QBs, starting RB, 2 starting DL (injured before the start of the season), and 2 starting offensive linemen, all go down with season ending injuries.

That being said, it is definately a serious issue that needs to be adressed.

The Donald Trump move. When something is in shambles just claim it's the best.

If Kalani said it, then it must be true. Let me dig up some Crowton quotes too

With TAMU's new staff any chance their LDS head guy is available?

I'd call losing Troy Warner a significant injury in the secondary

Not sure how I forgot about him. I probably subconsiously blocked that game

That's not my biggest concern. My biggest concern is one sideline reporter

So with the same strength and conditioning in 2016, why weren't there a ton of injuries then?

Indy Coug

Because Wintrich had done a great job.. took a while to undo what he had done

Bleeding Blue

And just exactly what were the injuries BYU suffered last year and how did they get them?

The volume and the type of injuries highlight a theme

Doesn't eliminate averages. We were way over an average # of injuries
