On another note, if he does get more concussions this year, I think his draft stock comes tumbling down.


as in a foregone conclusion that he would have multiple concussions if he got 1 more at all? Now that's ridiculas.

You Gatorfans really are pitiful. It's very sad. The fact is that the window following a concussion where very detrimental effects can occur generally ranges from 2-6 weeks following the initial concussion. The length of time varies based on the severity of the initial concussion. The fact Tebow lost consciousness for almost a minute or two and convulsed are signs that it was a severe concussion.

Furthermore, the fact he hasn't had any symptoms since Monday show that he hasn't been clear of symptoms for more than a week.

He is at risk, and the fact Meyer is even playing tihs chirade is an embarrassment. These fools are setting a horrible example about how kids should see football in regards to their health.

I defer to GeauxBob's and the opinions ofother medical professionals. It seems to me that if he isn't completely recovered he is susceptible to more concussions when playing a violent contact sport like football.
