Seems like some are having second thoughts.
Herbie publicly apologized for the accusation that he was faking.
He missed nine snaps, but was trying to tough it out.
He missed nine snaps He tweaked it on the previous kick off
Perfectly said. I do wonder why none of the 4 people rushing to his side where looking at his ankle.Usually, when something like that happens (Texas A&M), it is to stop momentum. That was the first thought I had at the time. Then I took in the situation and realized that we were just beginning a possession and not really trying to push the tempo. At that point, I gave him the benefit of the doubt.
I don't keep track of Baylor's players, but if he was a back-up who would be replaced by a third stringer, he was likely hurt.
Think about OU in his position. If Sanchez is injured and Austin gets hurt, he know that the talent level is likely about to drop off pretty seriously when he goes out.
If someone wants to use this strategy to slow down an offense, I look at it as just that - strategy. Know that it is going to happen and deal with it.
Just like defenses have to deal with an offense going ultra-up-tempo. Deal with it.
No way to know with injuries if a guy really is hurt or not. And sometimes, even a player doesn't really know if he is hurt until he gets a minute to assess.
Better safe than sorry on injuries.
