Wednesday, October 1st, 2008Since we’ve heard enough from the talking heads in Congress debating to bailout or not to bailout, I’ll skip the small talk and get straight to the injuries:
Kory Sheets RB PURDUE
It’s time for that most fun game — “TRANSLATE THAT COACHSPEAK!” Joe Tiller said that Kory Sheets “has a shoulder that will do this [...]
Triage Time: More Than Just a Game
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008When tragic news comes out like several of the injuries covered in this issue of Triage Time, it makes us realize what is truly important. We here at Fantasycollegeblitz.com are very happy to hear that Dante Love and Gary Rogers will eventually resume a normal life, albeit one that might not include playing the game [...]
Triage Time: To the Point of Throwing Up
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008When John and the FCB crew came to me with the idea for this column, I didn’t realize what an information void there was, how many misdirections there would be, or how ignored injuries were to the winning and losing in college football. It’s more than just the sheer replaceability of most college athletes, but [...]
Triage Time: The Tom Brady Effect
Tuesday, September 9th, 2008Forward by John Huss: Will had his hands full this weekend covering the NFL injury news on Tom Brady.

Triage Time: Fire up the Grills
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008Doing college football as well as pro (over at a little website called SI.com) this preseason reminds me of just how much I hate the preseason. Endless reports from practices are just not the same as evaluating game injuries for so many reasons. The first is that it’s harder not knowing and seeing how it [...]
Triage Time: Buyer Beware
Monday, August 18th, 2008Joe McKnight RB USC
The Trojans have been bitten by the injury bug a few times this fall but for the most part it’s been equal parts good and bad luck. It’s bad luck that the injuries happen at all, but they’ve dodged injuries that could affect their season. Despite their sick depth, the team still [...]
Triage Time: Camping Casualties
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008QB Mark Sanchez USC
The Trojans may have dodged a bullet when QB Mark Sanchez went down with a freak patellar dislocation. Sanchez made a casual throw during warmups and his knee dislocated. There was no contact and no reported loss of traction, so this is just one of those weird injuries that can break a [...]
