ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -A Central Florida football player who collapsed during training last week remains hospitalized while school officials review the workout.
Brandon Davis became dehydrated while participating in a routine weightlifting session Wednesday. Florida Hospital East spokeswoman Jacqueline Lorenzetti said Davis was in fair condition Monday. No other details were available because of privacy laws.
UCF’s athletic department said that the training was “a rigorous out-of-season workout” that was “not atypical” for a college football conditioning session.
The school’s training methods have been scrutinized since wide receiver Ereck Plancher collapsed and died during a conditioning workout last spring.
Davis was in the running back rotation during UCF’s 4-8 season.
