correct. It's funny to see people upset at the Brands and automatically taking the side of Endene.
If this is just related to his injury, do people honestly think the University of Iowa doesn't have a trainer or medical team that Brands is getting constant updates from about Endene. "Hey trainer/doc, what's up with Endene? How serious is this? Do we need to shut him down for the year and apply for a medical redshirt, or is this more of a comfort thing?" And when the trainer/doc tells Brands it's a comfort thing, yes, they SHOULD be upset he's not practicing, even a modified practice, or competing.
These are not just "student-athletes" anymore. They are being paid 6 or sometimes 7 figures to compete & win. You don't get to collect a free check and hang out...unless you're a "learing center" in Minneapolis.
