This is more of a question for posters who have medical training, especially in sports medicine. Posters have been generally enamored concerning Parker’s work here at Rutgers. Focus usually centers around size, strength, speed and agility, as I see it from reading here. I have no medical training or expertise; however, I wonder if the training includes enough joint and injury protection protocols. Certainly, football is a physical and somewhat dangerous sport, but when a team experiences injury numbers larger than the norm, is it merely happenstance, or can it be mitigated by different regimens. We were so excited for this year, especially from having a good number of experienced juniors and seniors. Although I understand that the season is only half over, and we may be able to turn around from the last two weeks; it seems that our injury list is especially concerning. Not only do these injuries affect team performance, but can follow these young men throughout their lives.
