I'm disgusted. Something has to change.

The solution is simple. Currently you have to stay out 1 play before coming back.

Increase that time. Example:

You have to stay out for the remainder of that series and the next series. So you miss 2 series anytime you go down

BTW, Kiffin wants it changed too, but is clear that he will expose it while it’s allowed. I also hate when we do it after PAT’s.

We're we faking injuries after xp attempts in 2001?

Aside from the xp attempts, I can only think of 1 instance where we've done it during a drive. In the 2022 FL game, Omari Thomas faked an injury after FL picked up a chunk play and got into our redzone. I distinctly remember it because I was worried until he got to the sideline, quit limping, and started laughing.

We can't claim to be angels, but I'll say there's a distinct difference in the gamesmanship between faking an injury to extend the dead clock period between kickoffs, and faking an injury to disrupt the play clock during a drive. I'd be content to quit exploiting the loophole after xp attempts if other teams had to quit exploiting it against us during our drives.

No he does it because we score so fast and he wants a few more minutes of rest for the D.

I understand that. I’m just saying that he may abuse the non rule in the situation in an attempt to draw attention. I also understand that we score so fast that the d needs a few more moments of rest. It’s a win-win.

Health and safety of the injured player should always be the number 1 priority.

My solution: The player must go through full physical evaluation and is ineligible to return to the field of play for 30 minutes.

I'd like to see the "injured" person have to set out until the next 1st down.

Still kicking that dead horse aren't we.
