MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — The most miserable place to be on the Blue Raider football practice field is not in the crosshairs of a coach correcting a mistake, nor is it even on the sideline, waiting for your number to be called at all to jump into a play.
It's off to the side, with Strength and Conditioning Coach Jamie Blatnick, where the Blue Raiders that are injured go through their rehab assignments while their teammates play football. It varies depending on the injury, of course. Some players are on exercise bikes, others do band work.
