I couldn't tell from ESPN's coverage - does CJ have a groin injury??

[TheRifleman86]

They only said it every other play ----- it was obnoxious.

Also, I know I am an Iowa fan, but the spots of the ball today were consistently moved back for Iowa and moved forward for Indiana. On one of the sacks late in the game there was an obvious holding right in front of the ref, no call.

I guess everyone plays perfectly against us with the lack of flags .....

Congratulations Hawks --- go get Floyd of Rosedale

One of the announcers had a groin injury, too. This was also repeated numerous times.

 

[ichawk24]

I was pissed about the spots but that guy appeared to be terrible for both teams.

 

[mthawkeyes]

Agree on both. It was Niemann who was held coming off the edge, and he still got the sack.

Even though he still wasn't 100%, I thought Beathard looked better today than a week ago. Hopefully he can get a little better each week.

 

[TankHawk]

Wait, does CJ have a groin injury? Really? I would never know it from listening to today's game.

 

[Magic Dave]

They should have interview CJ's groin after the game as much as they talked about it!

 

[I am El Nino]

I told my wife CJ should be proud that his crotch was talked about for 3 hours on ESPN.

 

[moral_victory]

It is my understanding that CJ has had a groin injury for years, and is merely playing football so he can write a book on coping and learning to play with groin injuries.

[jaysonjohn2012]

Do you think think that over emphasizing the injury is an attempt to sway national opinion. That is, public sentiment that Ferentz is continuing to play an injured kid

 

[Chewback]

Well I wondered about that. He seemed to be moving a little funky from time to time but I don't think I ever heard an explanation of why that might be.

 

[jdv77]

It didn't bother me to have that as an explanation for why our offense has not been explosive. If he was healthy, then the narrative would be that we lack playmakers on the perimeter.

[mthawkeyes]

That's obviously not CJ, as there is no giant sack in the groin area.

 

[EastIowaHawk]

Shhhhh. Doesn't he have an inguinal hernia?

 

[Gridiron24]

It's better than them talking about SEC games like when we played NW.

 

[Qued18]

There hasn't been this much crotch attention since 75 when Johnny Wad was on the scene

 

[Eternal Return]

One of the announcers had a groin injury, too. This was also repeated numerous times.

I just wanted to let everyone know that I've been posting with a groin injury over the past two weeks. Gutting it out, waiting until the offseason to let it heal.

 

[SuperHawk12]

I've never heard one grown man talking about another grown man's groin so much in my life.

I actually began to feel uncomfortable.

I would give my groin to CJ. Im not using it anyway.

 

[UncleChesterton]

Isn't the context important? They were very complimentary of CJ's abilities.
