Title: Ertz Injury
Post by: Steffy08 on October 16, 2016, 12:54:33 PM
I don't know whether I want him to be actually hurt (bad because Hubener plays qb) or not actually hurt (bad because he is a wussy).   

Either way, I'd appreciate any inside info so that I can direct my frustration properly.

Ertz is Grant Gregory-y.

I will just point out that grant gregory played half a season with half a shoulder, and Waters did pretty much the same thing two years ago.

I am concerned that the trainers cleared him to play, but Ertz took himself out.  I can't say I can ever remember a KState qb taking himself out of a game.

You think the coaches would have had him try to throw a couple balls before he took the field to see if he was good to go before the 2nd half  :facepalm:

Did you see why he took himself out? He literally couldn't throw the ball, Mahomes did the exact same thing two weeks ago. #LIFE is right, it is obvious the trainers and coaches didn't have him throw and that is absurd.

I just can't believe that he wouldn't have thrown in warming up for the second half, even if the trainers didn't do that as part of the evaluation. 

It's all pretty weird.

I hope he comes back like Mahomes did the following week; I thought there were legitimate signs of improvement yesterday.

I think he probably was throwing in warm ups in a way so he could play. Then when he really had to throw on time he felt pain. I agree with MIR, he was wise to take himself out. It looks like an AC joint injury like Mahomes, so hopefully he can heal up this week.

I don't know anything about shoulders, but the way he got hurt was completely different than the way Mahomes got hurt

They both involved their shoulders being driven into the turf so I don't know how much different they could have been.

I wonder if they are considering pulling Thompson's redshirt.  Without Cook last year, Hubener doesn't even get us to a bowl game, and that is with a three-win non conference.  Knowing the offense doesn't mean crap if he can't complete a simple swing pass.
Title: Re: Ertz Injury
Post by: DOD Take 2 on October 16, 2016, 04:30:28 PM
Are you forgetting that Delton exists? They won't pull Thompson's redshirt even if it means only winning 5 games - and I'm pretty sure we're winning at least 6 even with this crap offense.

Delton can't be out Hubener.  Hubener is a known commodity.  I'm not sure either of them get us to a bowl.  If Thompson is the guy going forward, I think you can make a decent case that the best thing for the program is to play him right now. 

Things are going to get pretty gloomy if we have to go six more games of Hubener.

Obviously I'd like to see Thompson play but this coaching staff would never do it. I also don't know that Delton isn't better than Hubes, but our coaching staff is extremely risk averse and probably don't think he's prepared, etc

I don't think it's a season ending injury but you do realize that when he tore his acl he ran another play then attempted to take himself out?

MIR is right. Just because he ran another play is not determinative. He did that last year, then missed the rest of the season.

He had all of halftime for the medical staff to clear him to run another play in this case. If he has a season ending injury, then our entire medical staff needs replaced.

Safe to say that unless this is some sort of oddity injury like what happened to Henry Rowengartner Ertz will not magically be a better passer after a shoulder injury. Call me crazy though!

Not sure about being done for the year.

First injured it against FAU, reinjured against WVU and then again at OU. Sounds like this time the shot didn't get rid of enough of the pain to play through. It didn't sound incredibly serious though.

This is great news.

If it has been an ongoing thing, it might explain (1) our reluctance to call QB runs and (2) the very tentative nature in which Ertz runs.

Shoulder issues = pass issues

Runs tentatively because easily broken.

Seems like a great idea to keep him as #1.

I mean this was in issue in the non-con but the 2.5 games of conference play has seen him rush 29 times for 148 yards and 3 touchdowns. What the hell about that is reluctant and tentative?

He's a better runner than Klein. He's just not tough enough to take as many carries as Klein did.

Ertz has been a less effective runner than Klein, Sams, and Waters.  He is better than Hubener, but I think Hubener runs the read option better.

OK, the stats suggest Ertz is a better runner than Waters.  I will concede I was wrong on that one.

That said, I hope that Ertz progresses enough that he can:
1.  lead us down the field running the ball for a winning TD (ISU 2014) and
2.  takes a big hit but gets right back up and plays through pain (OU 2014).

ertz is a fine runner, though his decision making on the read option leaves a lot to be desired. 

The problem is that on his best days, we've only gotten about 80 yards with his legs.  That is not enough to make up for his lack of passing production.
