Easy fix to faking injury...
Sep 2, 2013, 2:20 PM

... if you are injured, you sit out either 4 snaps or the entire series. This would no doubt penalize players and teams that are actually hurt and can return, but it would also eliminate cheating in this area. I'm okay with that.

yep. I think if you stop the game you are penalized for the series.

plays. Also, it should be in an injured player's best interest to take a series off in order to ensure a full medical assessment. This of course is only when there's an official stoppage in play on the field as a result.

I love your solution. It's the perfect answer to the problem. I vote for the entire series.

Good idea because if you are injured enough to stop play

then you probably need a few plays off.

the players who are really hurt might try to hang in there and do more damage.
How about a one play penalty for every 'X' seconds the clock is stopped?

I have pointed that out before..it will come down to the honesty and integrity of the head coach and all of us know what that equals in the SEC... none!!!!

One play, 3rd string guy or whatever. A few plays out, etc

Not that big of a deal if slowing down the game is the intention. By your premise, by faking the injury they are are choosing to sit the starter out for a play anyway.

Um, it's not a "few" plays and it's not a "few" scrubs.

You send in a backup for one play. Said backup falls down to stop the game. Backup leaves the game for x plays. Starter is back in after one play.That's how you beat the proposed method.
I'm not sure what you mean?

ALSO - NO substitutes except for the injured player.

I am not concerned about a player that is really injured because anyone that stays down on the field is really hurt and can not hide it. If the officials see a hurt player they will stop play and send them off. It is really not hard to fix without jeopardizing safety.

you do is ...
1. If a players gets hurt he sits out the rest of that series. Call it "safety of the player" rule.
2. Review the film after the game and any player seen faking, they get suspended for the next game.
3. The NCAA warns teams not to do it again. After that, each incident will cost you a scholarship next year.

Agreed! A kid can take himself out on his own by getting the attention of his coach without "crying wolf" and stopping the whole game.

After all, if your helmet flies off you have to sit for a play. Which is kind of dumb. But if you're really hurt, you're probably really going to have to sit out for a few plays anyway.
