Yeah it's probably tl;dnr for the majority of the Rant, but being in the medical field and treating patients post TBI it was definitely interesting. I hope they are able to treat Williford and get positive results.

For sure.

It's that mentality, too, that led this to be pretty much glossed over at Media Days by the bunch of morons that somehow earn what little money they make by posing as "journalists".

Miles is on stage, so what kind of whacky stuff is he going to say next??? Hyperbaric hahahah The Mad Hatter at it again.

It's a real shame, and I'm glad the writer brought that up in his story. The media truly is a joke.


quote:

Before the research can revolutionize the way concussions are treated in the sport, it needs to produce results. But that couldn’t contain Miles from publicly stating his excitement for the possibilities at SEC Media Days.

Seconds into his half-hour press conference, Miles brought up the potential offered by the research. But his remarks didn’t necessarily hit their intended mark. Blame it on Miles’ public speaking notoriety.

He has a knack for getting keyboards clacking during his press conferences, usually with his trademark juxtaposed syntax. So it was almost too much for those in attendance when Miles uttered the words, “hyperbaric oxygen.”

It was a Twitter punch line. Miles might as well have brought up how he planned to walk on the moon. But it was not a joke.

“I think people thought, ‘Wow, what a wacky comment. The coach is doing his PR thing up there,’” Harch said. “But he is way ahead of everybody. He is dead serious about it, he is right on target.”
