More on Coach Hep.

Here's a post on Coach Hep from a blog called Cobra Brigade, which seems to be something of a general interest/Chicago Cubs blog. Overall, a well-written and well-reasoned piece. I'm a little uncomfortable with the degree of medical speculation there, particularly with the rather explosive notion that Coach Hep knew there was more than scar tissue after last fall's surgery. It's certainly possible, but if that's true, that goes well beyond privacy protection and into out-and-out lying. Again, it's possible and to some degree understandable that Hep's public pronouncements were intentionally inaccurate, but I wouldn't be comfortable going there based on speculation. Still, some nice work there, and hopefully Cobra Brigade will have more to say about IU football in the months to come.
