One thing that I always gave coach Novak credit for for was not taking the red shirt off of multiple players to help cope with those injuries. By giving his true freshman a full year in a college weight training and conditioning program and by not letting them play against a bunch of 22 and 23 year olds he set Jerry Kill up for a successful season the following year and you could argue that his decision paid dividends for more than a single season.

It will be interesting to see how the current staff deals with the growing number of injured players. Perhaps there are fewer injuries than in coach Novak's final season.

Wtf? They’re a little nicked up on defense, but they haven’t been hit was some massive disaster of injuries. Pugh, LDJ, And and Leroy have missed time, but isn’t that pretty much it? It’s football, guys get hurt.
