Having staff that crosses the line in terms of making players play injured or not listening to their concerns is a BAD thing. Not only is it bad for the players health, its a terrible look when you recruit kids. 24 100 yard sprints on an ankle that is already had past problems? Not good
If his ankle was all that bad, even with a good tape job, he wouldn't have been able to finish one 100 yard sprint, let alone 24.




Here he is after the week of practice where he said his right ankle continued to swell and bruise all week. He's in the pink shorts.

After everything we've learned about him...OF COURSE he's in pink shorts.

He looks to have serious potential as a kicker.
Dang 'ol Santino, man.

Are we sure that isn't him in the pink shirt

That guy looks more like the one in the articles.

Meh, either way, both have fine ankles. Dude is a liar.

I hope people in our compliance office that that picture to help refute his claims. Ankle looks pretty fine.

When I was a freshman, I felt like I was going to hurl. I asked the coach if I could take a break. Coach calmly walked me over to the bushes and told me to hurl and get back with the team. Best thing anybody ever did for me.

Pain =/= Injury

A lot of kids, especially now, do not get that.
Maryland has already lost a player and is about to lose their coach because sometimes the coaches don't know the difference either! I remember high school coaches yelling at kids that I now realize obviously had heat exhaustion, and one that I think had heat stroke. They're lucky nobody died. I'd hope that college coaches would know the difference, but see: Maryland. Don't think you can make the blanket statement that the coach knows the difference between pain and injury.

Tostino's ankles look fine. He does have that Randy Bullock physique. May he find the comfort he needs at his new program.

That's certainly a nerdy answer.

Didn't Bo Pelini ream out Nebraska QB Taylor Martinez coming off the field the night we beat them 9-6? Find that and post it...The shot of Saban ripping into AJ McCarron is nothing compared to what Pelini did to Martinez.

I dealt with the sports medical staff while at A&M. They were top notch. The orthopedic donated time to repair some of us poor college students. Also, they helped provide free rehab. I'd take their judgement over good ole pinky.

The only time hair ankles and subway have truly mattered.
