What is surprising and what seems to be the biggest problem is that the university doesn't have any specific protocol in place for athletes who have suffered a concussion - an injury that recent NFL testimony has proven can be a very serious event, with lasting consequences a possibility.

It's not surprising that Craig James is a first class idiot, and a college coach is a bit bullheaded. But, when it comes to brain-trauma injuries, you would think - especially given all the PR on concussions of late - the school AD would have a much more specific protocol for dealing with athletes rehabbing from these injuries.

Trust me - the little wuss was taken care of. He just got pissed that he wasn't allowed to stroll around the sidelines in his expensive sunglasses like a prima-donna while his team-mates worked their @sses off.

The trainer has already blown up the twerp's video lie about the electrical closet/shed. See my earlier post and watch Leach's video regarding Adam and Craig James.

“...... you would think - especially given all the PR on concussions of late - the school AD would have a much more specific protocol for dealing with athletes rehabbing from these injuries.”

That’s exactly why Leach got his fat ass fired. The University drew up a new policy for dealing with injured players and Leach refused to sign it saying nobody was going to be looking over HIS shoulder.

They probably do but after the diagnosis, why would the head coach be involved? His job is to coach; the trainers were the ones involved in the so-called "punishment." The kid is a punk!
