Parents claim Rockwall-Heath (Texas) coach John Harrell made players do 300-400 push-ups in an hour, forcing some to require medical attention.
"Heath football, it’s a brotherhood … these coaches have treated me with so much respect and have treated me like their son,"Luff said the activity last Friday"wasn't any different than any workout we've done before, intensity-wise." He also denied claims that players weren't able to take any water breaks.
In the school's letter to parents, the campus athletic trainer advised anyone reporting symptoms such as sharp arm pain, limited movement or dark urine to report them immediately. Those symptoms are consistent with a diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis. The Morning News cites two other nationally reported incidents involving college football players displaying symptoms of rhabdomyolysis after intense workouts: In 2011, 13 players from the University of Iowa were hospitalized, and in 2017 Oregon suspended its strength and conditioning coach after three players were sent to the hospital.
Harrell is in his second season as head coach after serving as an assistant the previous three years. The team finished 7-5 last season and lost in the second round of the regional playoffs.
