Injury Reports Coming To College Sports Updated 23 Jul 08
According to a report from the Sporting News, the NCAA's Atlantic Coast Conference will do something no other Div I conference does and what the NFL does every week during the season--publish injury reports.
Information on the status of ACC football players will be made available twice a week and according to spokespeople from the conference it is not mandatory and not gambling-related.
"This is not gambling-based. This was done to keep coaches from having to comment about injuries on a daily basis," ACC spokesman, Mike Finn said.
