It’s a part of the story every year in every college football program across the nation - injuries.
TCU is no different in 2018, losing two player during preseason camp, both injured on non-contact drills that will cost them their season. Both defensive tackle Ross Blacklock and safety Atanza Vongor were injured indoors, doing innocuous things - out of harm’s way, one would think. It’s indicative of the game of football - the confluence of unbelievable size and incredible speed in a not-completely developed body. But, it also may be a part of the change in the way practice is conducted and regulated, something that coach Gary Patterson noted when addressing his team’s state last weekend.
