Whatever Happened to a "Sprained Ankle?"


This is unbelievable...

With the announcement last night that Notre Dame starting TE Durham Smythe would be lost for the season due to a knee injury -- the FIGHTING IRISH have lost FIVE STARTERS -- after only two games.

You can't make this up.

Here's the list of players:
  • Jarron Jones -- starting DT -- knee injury
  • Shaun Crawford -- starting nickel CB -- knee injury
  • Tarean Folson -- starting RB -- knee injury
  • Malik Zaire -- starting QB -- ankle injury
  • Durham Smythe -- starting TE -- knee injury

I have never seen anything like this -- 20% of your top 25 players -- GONE FOR THE SEASON two games into the season...
