    After reading this I started thinking the same thing. Ronnie Wright is an intense guy who trains our guys HARD. We have had alot of injuries over the years including our share of stress fractures. One cause is lack of proper recovery time or rest following workouts. Has this ever been discussed? I have not heard much in the media this year about him.
    How stupid does our 'toughness' montage look now? What about all the talk about 'being the toughest' we heard from the players prior to the season? Whether it's 'we hang our hat on our defense' or the toughness BS we heard earlier in the preseason, it is very disheartening that lip service has become a staple of this program.

      I don't know what that make us. Some of our guys may not understand the difference between tough and strong. No doubt our guys have gotten stronger. You need to be at this level. What I'm getting at is does our intense workouts with Ronnie have a connection with our history of injuries. Is a lack of proper recovery time leading to some of these injuries.

        I think it's valid question, but these injuries go all the way back to AP, and I don't think Ronnie was around back then.

        I know some people used to blame the Fieldhouse floor for our frequent stress fractures, but that place has been gone for almost 2 years now. We've had 2 stress fractures since then, so I am not sure if that was a contributing factor.

              I guess my 'MVC Assistants' thread has gone the way of the missing Kennedy evidence...

                Unfortunately, it was hijacked by someone who had an agenda. So the thread, as well as the phony fan are gone.

                  Funny post BB. One of my threads was also hijacked, near Roswell, and ended up in 'Area 51'!

                  Sorry your MVC Assistants thread disappeared, it was a thought provoking piece.

                    Don't worry, it will return one way or the other. I'm not sure why the individual posts themselves couldn't be removed, but such is life. What I am really wondering right now is how many stress fractures came out of our last few days of 'practice'...

                        For college age kids 2 a day should not pose a problem.

                        As you get older 2 day anything or week would be a blessing!
