a persons skull, you’re gonna keep getting concussions. Helmets help tremendously, but only so much can be done to stop inertia.

Glad they chose to protect Jaren. Here is what happened to the Tennessee qb.

I feel so bad for Guarantano when he has to deal with Pruitt. Its like watching a kid with a verbally abusive parent

Pruitt seems like a huge jerk, but supposedly Guarantano has gotten into trouble for changing the play

No touching

did you see his fumble on the goal line? he deserved to be yelled at

Grabbing his facemask and screaming into his face?

Yep. The risk is not worth it.

Not to detract, but why is the main picture after the splash BYU?

It says it's a related slideshow

Not the same situation but related, how was Zack Moss not concussed against ASU

I thought the same thing.

the same thing happened with Covey against Washington last year.

What do studies conclude about the evolving designs of helmets?

I don’t know there is much they can do. You’d need a cushion inside the skull.

Musk ox and/or big horn sheep skull implants.

Did the math really quickly.... to get the skull/brain ratio the helmet would

Anyone know whether concussions or micro concussions cause CTE?

Last thing I read said same thing

I'm sure it doesn't help. I believe some concussions result in permanent injury

I'll give Kalani credit here. He always seems to protect his players. Even if

Was Hall even cleared to play? If not the decision was made for him

TunaNoCrust

Kalani told Romney he was starting on Wednesday. So he made the decision early

sandtrapcougar

10/21/19 10:50am

There is that possibility. It's also a possibility that they named a starter

We may never know that, but he was fully participating in practice...

PJMort

10/21/19 11:32am

BYU does't let them fully practice until they have been cleared.

Dr. Robinson on Criddle's show said that they used to give severity grades...

PJMort

10/21/19 1:05pm

Yes he was. Players are not allowed to practice until they have cleared concussion protocols.

slatecoug

10/21/19 12:48pm

I thought kalani said he was cleared to practice but that he essentially failed

fattycoug

10/21/19 12:59pm

If it was me, I would have failed the protocol after seeing the weather report.

PJMort

10/21/19 1:14pm

From what I have seen at practice they run through most drills but no 11's, or they blow the whistle when any1 gets near

I know what they released to the media, but they are much more protective with them until fully cleared
