The new normal for injuries?
Asked earlier this week about the status of NC State's injured players ahead of Saturday's game, Dave Doeren declined to talk about it at all.
That's pretty much the same stance Dabo Swinney is starting to take as well. Swinney said after Wednesday's practice that Clemson will release its availability report on game day and kept it at that, which has essentially been his answer to questions about injuries the last few weeks.
Unlike the NFL, college teams aren't required to release information on injuries/participation throughout the week. You can debate all day how much it really matters in the grand scheme of things -- frankly, I think it's largely paranoia -- but I think this is going to become more of the norm for college programs.
