It's a common phrase that is used in football. "It's like being hit by a truck." Well now there is one Iowa football player that literally knows what it is like to be hit by a truck.
Thursday, Hawkeye senior offensive lineman Josh Koeppel was hit by a pick up truck while cruising on his mopped. When Koeppel was going through an intersection he was hit, and then went flying through the air.
Amazingly, after striking the ground Koeppel stands up. That's right he stood up. Koeppel was later taken to the hospital where he was released with only some scrapes and bruises. When it comes to playing...he won't be out long. Koeppel is expected to miss the season opener, but he will be back for week number two.
Koeppel had been a tough battle with Kirk Ferentz's son James for the starting spot, but will be second on the depth chart to start the season. Once you watch the video...you'll know who should have won that starting job.
For this week's "Video fo the Week" I give you: That's No Linebacker...That's a Chevy
