🏈 If the O'Bannon suit against the NCAA wasn't enough to hurt, now we have a Concussion suit as well?

Terry, when I was coaching, we knocked a kid out on the opponents' sideline right before the half. We had a Dr on our sideline and he checked on him at the half. The Dr told the coach that he wouldn't allow him to play if he was on our team and suggested that he hold him out until further tests. The coach actually told our Dr that he was feeing him a line in order to help our chances in winning the game. I know that if a HS coach is pulling crap like this, then these college coaches will as well. It truly is disturbing.

Geez. That IS disturbing.

Here's another couple of tweets from Fenno I came across this morning. I'm repeating myself, I know, but his feed is truly interesting to follow.
