probably should be split off into another thread, but do these ankle issues have anything to do with the new playing surface? not even sure where exactly they practice of if that surface changed too?

I was worried when Small took that hit last year that he would be injury prone, even though anyone would have been hurt by that hit.
I sure hope that this isn't a continuing problem for him.

Yeah, it's a damn shame that the national shortage of type V-12 rubber sole caused them to discontinue manufacturing.

Injury updates: Wide receiver Albert Dukes has not practiced the last three days due to a finger injury he sustained this week in practice. OSU Head Coach Jim Tressel is not sure of his status for the game on Saturday.

"Albert is a little bit banged up and he didn't work today," said Tressel.
"I don't know for sure if he's a go for the game or not. He's missed maybe three days of work now. It was just in a drill, he whacked a finger or something like that, so I don't know if he'll have that opportunity."
On the brighter side, wide receiver Devon Lyons may be available after missing some practice time late in fall camp.
"Devon actually had a real good day today, so it was good to see it looks like he's healthy. He's very aware of what we do, so he knows the system and he's now healthy," said Tressel.
Wide receiver Ray Small, who has an ankle injury, also seems to be on the mend, but probably won't see action on Saturday.

"He could be back as early as next week. It's possible. You never know on those," said Tressel.
The one player whose injury seems a bit more serious is linebacker Curtis Terry who has an injured foot.
Terry's prognosis is not great and Tressel said that the OSU coaching staff may consider a redshirt for Terry if his foot does not heal quickly.
"With a guy like Curtis, who has a redshirt available, I'm not saying we're going to redshirt him, but I think you have to make good decisions if an injury goes too far into the year. That's what the medical redshirt is for, for a person not to spend a year with a fraction of a year. We'll have that discussion as time goes," Tressel said.

Cornerback Andre Amos is trying to come back from knee surgery. His status is cloudy.
"I'm not sure of his status," said Cornerback Coach Taver Johnson.
"I know he's been doing very, very good with his rehab. I know he's been ahead of schedule, but I don't know the timetable. He was getting better as the spring was going on. That was tough for us. He went up for a ball, one of safeties went up, the receiver went up and I think he came down on somebody's foot and his knee twisted."
