dgambill Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 We have no option but to trust that the medical staff have sufficient reason to be holding Rob out. I know it’s frustrating when we see football players get knocked out on the field and come back the next week to be human battering Rams again the next but obviously they type of concussion Rob and Race have suffered are more severe then an avg bump to the head. Watched the kid from S Carolina the other night come back after missing two games from a concussion to pour in 25 but every injury isn’t the same. I’m sure Frank Martin was just happy to have the guy cleared because he was incredible in his return. Just hope Rob when he comes back picks up where he left off.

iufaninand Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 I just wonder if the protocol is based on an NCAA standard or if every university is allowed their own interpretation. I don’t want this to affect our players long term, but if IU is being more cautious than other universities, it’s going to be difficult to compete. I must admit I’m really struggling with how long the recovery is taking. O can’t believe these guys do t want to out there playing, which to me says it has little to do with what feedback their giving the doctors. At this rate, we need to start having them wear boxing headgear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierdave Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 Does anyone know if guys that have been injured for a while participate in any basketball activities? In other words, do guys like Hunter and Thompson practice, lift etc. or has the staff just told them to take it easy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DunkinDipo Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Any word on Al's injury? I read where Archie was notified at halftime that he would not be available for the second half and it had to do with a leg injury of some sort.

BobSaccamanno Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Durham is a big loss. He plays hard, and is a good two-way player. He is a steady Eddie and can hit some jumpers if he has the time (not the fastest release I have ever seen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 It's unusual, but I wonder if we can petition the NCAA for an injury exemption redshirt for Race? I realize he has already burned his redshirt, but he played up a year since he should have been a senior in high school. Then, when he's eligible, he loses a season because of a concussion which is a polite way of saying a brain injury. There is the occasional circumstance where the NCAA grants a sixth season, i.e., two redshirts, due to an extenuating injury situation. With the way this has played out, and with a mission of doing right by student athletes, I hope the NCAA considers giving him a second redshirt, this time for the brain injury.

Yes but I don't think iu would know until after his 5th year, then you apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is wrong with our trainers!! Every injury is different. You are dealing with a brain injury, trainers have nothing to do with it. You can't ice it then tape it up.
