Wait, what? I didn't hear about Wilson or Montrel. Ugh, here we go again. Could it be a strength and conditioning issue or the way our fall practices are conducted? It could be that I just don't follow other team's injuries like I do TCU, but it sure seems like we lead all others in that category.
i was told ben hurt his foot, surgery was required, and he will be back second half of the year.
don't know what happened other than he hurt his foot, but unless a weight got dropped on his foot not sure how this goes back to s&c.
i have never heard exactly why has kept montrel out for all this time, but based upon what he initially missed time if this is a continuance as wex pointed out counting on him might not be the best strategy.
injuries are going to happen and the experienced depth problem at linebacker is not due to the s&c program, practice schedules, or work loads.
go back and look at the recruiting at this position in 2015, 2016, and 2017.
2015 frogs signed semaj thomas, alec dunham, and mike freeze
2016 back that class with one linebacker signee in juco aa tyree horton
2017 with only 1 of the 4 previous signees on the roster that frogs sign alex bush and garret wallow.
so 6 linebackers signed in 3 years, 4 are gone, 1 is a solid squad player, and 1 has started 6 games at linebacker.
