Message: [QUOTE="orangehomer, post: 1527627, member: 151"] too many variables, it is impossible to consider that every program is following the same program, has the same set of protocols, and has equally qualified individuals to make the evaluations. it would take years of data before trends could even start to be considered. my position is, if kids are getting concussions they shouldn't be playing football. it would seem that it is really difficult to determine if a kid has a concussion or not, and especially at the college level I think you have to err on the side of caution. having said that, it is also clear that the people that work in college football are not exactly rocketship scientists and it is hard to trust anything they come up with. For instance, I would feel less bad if dungey were disqualified over concussions and were able to live a normal life after football than I would over a few extra wins and a kid that was 'ed up later in life.
