As a small college head coach should you:
1. Be aware that your star qb was laying on the turf for a few minutes after hitting his head on the ground... And then only missed one play with basically one “trainer/medical staff” helping player when off the field for 20 seconds.
2. Be aware that said player 10 minutes later was in same position and laid on ground several more minutes?
3. Be at least somewhat concerned for the players long term health?
4. Care at least enough to physically go ask “medical” staff, talk to the player, something, anything?
5. Attempt to create a respectable culture/environment where player concussion/injury is taken seriously, especially around the head?
As an aside:
“Not the coaches/leagues/etc fault” mentality is how the NFL got where it is with the concussion threatening the future of the league itself.
Re: SDSU Post Game Thoughts
I would be interested in someone explaining how anyone can determine whether someone has a concussion in the 30 seconds it takes to run one play.

For not having a medical school, Bisonville has a lot of people capable of diagnosing a concussion from a TV broadcast.

He’s the only quarterback with more than one win against us, winning 40% of his games against us. We can laugh about that all we want, but the average win percentage is 7% over the last 8 years. So could we focus on praising our players and coaches rather kicking a kid on another team and questioning how tough he is?
Good post! TC has been a great QB for the Jacks the past few years. He is the main reason they beat us twice. I know I'm going to be relieved to see a different face behind center when we play the Bunnies next year!

As I reflect on last nights game against SDSU, as well as prepare for upcoming Holiday season it reminds me of an ole’ saying...
“Be careful what you wish for!”

Arm chair coaches and arm chair trainers evidently!
Re: SDSU Post Game Thoughts
Yep and I question their medical team. It is a question that needs to be asked by the SDSU AD and if after looking into it and they are satisfied then great but if not they need to have a discussion on their protocols. We need to follow the same strict protocols at NDSU as it is that important. A student Athlete is owed that by all teams. That all rolls to the top of the team and that is Stig and he is responsible.

Then they have worthless medical staff, or maybe the perfect medical staff for Stig. Give a listen to the jack post game presser. I think Christion said his head bounced off the turf in that Jabril tackle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Shk8vQ6IKIM

Even the commentators noted it when they compared him with Stick who did not avoid contact...he dished it out. You are correct, he was worried about surviving.
It was obvious he was concussed. He couldnt take another big hit. Stig and the medical staff should be fired over this. There was no concussion protocol. I never saw a doctor examine him. If he tips over they are in serious shit.
