Stanford Spring Football Practice Primer - 82lsju - 02-22-2022
Quote:The Stanford Cardinal football team comes off a 3-9 year, and they will be wasting no time in getting back to the Dan Elliott Practice Fields to improve for 2022. Stanford will be among the first college football teams to open up spring practice when they kick off on Tuesday. Cardinal247 gives its spring primer to preview the key offseason practices.

OK< who the hell is Dan Elliott? Is he the Jim Jarmusch Director of Practice Fields?

Hope they stay healthy. Seems to be a challenge in this program.

Quote:All eyes are on the Cardinal defensive line this offseason — and it’s not just because of Stanford’s lackluster performance on defense last year. The team made a significant schematic change at the end of the 2021 season when it switched to a four-man defensive front.
...
On the injury front, Stanford seems to be particularly banged up at running back and fullback. Junior running back Casey Filkins, sophomore running back Brendon Barrow and sophomore fullbacks Shield Taylor and Coco Lukrich were all in street clothes on Saturday. Shaw said Filkins, Taylor and Lukrich will likely miss the second half of spring practice as well but are on track to return later in spring quarter. After the transfer of fifth-year Houston Heimuli, fifth-year Jay Symonds is the only currently healthy fullback.
Also in street clothes: fifth-year cornerback Ethan Bonner and fifth-year safety Patrick Fields, Stanford’s headline transfer from Oklahoma. “He’s got a little tweak right now,” Shaw said of Fields. “We don’t need to rush him in the first week of practice. We saw everything we needed to see. He’s going to help us right away.”
Fifth-year wide receiver Michael Wilson appeared to injure his foot on a tackle after reeling in a deep ball at the start of the team period. He got up gingerly, limped to the sideline and didn’t return to practice.

Bonner and Wilson hurt... big surprise.
Why is it with this staff that there are numerous injuries in spring practice? Every year.

Because it's football? A cursory google search turns up "10 players unavailable for Ohio State for spring practice", "Clemson opens Spring Practice, Swinney addresses injuries: Injuries playing a big role in start to spring", "Purdue: Raft of key players will miss spring practice coming off injury", "Boise State QB Bachmeier is on lengthy list of injured players as spring practice begins" - I include Bachmeier since he's been mentioned in another thread.
