That's what I thought. I also thought you couldn't get shin splints unless you've been doing an awful lot of pounding. Given the time period of his injury (out most of 2 weeks), that would mean he was running an awful lot prior to camp starting. It's possible I guess, just doesn't sound like a legit injury.

I'll leave it to Bubba though, shin splints may be related to something else & they're advising him not to practice. JLC's blog today said that Loyd wanted to go saturday night but they wouldn't let him.

No matter what the extent of his injury, he came in as the #3 & Thrash has been having a great camp, so he might be #4 & falling.
