The way the season has gone for TCU, having a few more injuries seems about right.

That was the news coach Gary Patterson announced after the Horned Frogs' Tuesday practice at the Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility.

Three more players suffered injuries, including two who will miss the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl against Michigan State on Dec. 29 in Tempe, Ariz.

The most important loss could be offensive lineman Eric Tausch, who hurt his back in a non-football related injury. ...

Was moving Jordan really necessary?

Sadly, yes. She graduated and couldn't be a Showgirl anymore. We all miss her, Top.

Coaches saw something that might work so I trust them but I'm so mad at this injury bug we got. :sad: I wish he could have kept it secret this time because it makes me worry what else will happen before I get to Tempe.

Really? Moore hurt on first play after position change....I mean, c'mon..maybe he was just fine where he was on defense.....gotta wonder What the Heck??

I think many on here were hoping he was redshirted and then they couldn't keep him off the field, now an injury at a position he's never played, wow

Moore being out long term is terrible. Losing Tausch for the bowl game is huge.

He could have had the same injury on defense. No need to second guess things.

the cameramen like to find her during Cowboys games.

agree Tausch is the really bad news.

It is called football, players get hurt.

Its like saying did we need to run the ball when waymon tore is ACL against KU

While I agree You, you still have to wonder switching to offense if that's a different stress on the player...

 

[fwfrog]

If fullback is such a need area, where is the recruit to fill it? They have had almost a year to get it filled.

 

[Frognosticator]

Maybe we just shouldn't practice. That'll keep injuries low. :blink:

 

[PurplePainD]

I'm gonna go along with the conspiracy theorists and say Jordan's injury may have occured before the "position switch" announcement.

 

[BABYFACE]

Moore's injury was a non-contact incident. Could have happened anywhere at any position the field.

It would not surprise me if Tausch plays some by the time Bowl game is here. Tough dude, I wouldn't rule him out.

Carraway and Moore are definetly done for the year.

Bowl diversion tactic? What's Jordan's
best position for the future?

I don't understand why people think this. The guy didn't start on defense, and wouldn't have started on offense, so how was that a good diversion tactic?

So what exqctly happened to Carraway? Is it like an ACL tear? Will the injury stunt his growth for next year
