What makes sense is not attacking a player who has had a concussion.

Evidently concussions only matter if you’re an NFL player?

Thank goodness there was someone looking out for the student.

All the rest is bullcrap.

Go ahead, flame away. No doubt to some being a winning coach is more important than the safety of a player.

You mean like Coach Leach did when he took a student and put him out of harms way, in a cool, dark place (with medical/training staff) to assist in his recovery? Is that what you meant, or did you mean the university that fired the coach for doing exactly what you said needed to be done?

When I got a concussion while playing football in High School, I was placed in the weight room, with a trainer (she was cute, and my girlfriend (now wife) didn’t like it) for three days until I was no longer bothered by the bright light emanating from that huge burning thing in the sky.

Had I only known that I was being abused, my family could have sued the school for $$$!

I don’t really care, but it seems like a one sided investigation...

What did Leach do that harmed Adam James? How was he harmed?

I happen to agree with you. And you are correct some of the knuckle draggers have been particularly crude in their comments——one too many concussions perhaps?

And who was that? Who ok'd the kid not dressed for play but rather in street attire to hang out in the building during practice due to light sensitivity associated with concussions?
