Tap Out

A foot injury will keep Nathan Taphorn from making the trip to Spain. Fallon also has a "minor" foot injury. When the team was doing the Navy SEAL stuff, it looked like Skelly was in a boot. That's 3 foot injuries so far.

Shakes, could it be the shoes?

Agree. Not a good sign. Hope the young man can recover for this season.

Tap is making the trip, but not playing.

We laugh about the shoes but in BB especially it must be huge to have the right shoe.

To be fair, though, the left one is just as important.

Funny story. My wife teaches Kindergarten. One of her students was changing shoes for recess, she said, " Honey, you're putting that shoe on the wrong foot." His response, " But the other one is ok, right?"

With the ridiculous prices these shoes cost nowadays, I certainly hope it isn't the shoes.

My guess is we have a slight suspicion about UA shoes because unlike Nike and Adidas, UA is a sports/fashion apparel company first and a shoe company second. Hopefully, they have top notch shoe design and technology department also but it's not what they are known for.

I dunno, but Coble had foot issues when it was Adidas so it may be circumstance. I know Under Armour went out and over paid a former Nike shoe designer that primarily made basketball shoes. Is there a difference between basketball and football shoe design? I dunno.

Actually CEO Plank played football at U of Maryland. He started the company as a performance wear company based on his experience of wearing soggy, heavy t-shirts under his uniform. Seems to me their initial lines of product was performance apparel worn "under" other clothing - hence "Under" Armour.
