They can take hours or even days to produce any symptoms. Just one concussion makes you more susceptible to further concussions. He just had one less then a month ago and the way he takes hits I wouldn't be surprised if he had 1 or 2 in high school. Lastly, being knocked unconscious is not normal. There are many other issues that could arise from that type of trauma then just a concussion such as a brain bleed, which again does not always immediately show signs or symptoms. The safest thing for the kid and his future was to sit him. The player always wants to play. He will obviously deny that he was knocked out, because as I said players want to play and will say anything to get back on the field. [/QUOTE]
