I'm voting D. Feel confident MU's medical staff would have sat him down if he were concussed.
-
It is possible to take a head shot, have it affect you, and not be concussed. I thought you played basketball.
-
If concussion protocol was followed and he was cleared to play, absolutely 100% fine.
If protocol was not followed, this is very problematic.
I don’t know if they were followed or not, but I certainly hope they were.
-
Option E - none of the above, which for me is the same as "not enough information."
I don't know enough about the protocol, nor how the team put Markus through that protocol, to have a firm position.
I will say the circumstantial evidence doesn't look great. The video shows that Markus hit his head, and was clearly dazed. He has had concussion issues before. Yet he didn't miss one second of game action, and was put in after the TV time out. From that point on, he was clearly a different player.
But to accuse the team of wrongdoing or not having Markus's health and safety as a top priority is a really serious charge that I certainly don't feel I have enough information to make.

Exactly right. No further comment needed.

F. Not what happened. He was elbowed in the head and then went hard to the floor and into the chairs.
I'm sure the team did a quick assessment and Markus convinced them to let him play. To suggest that the injury was nothin, considering Markus' reaction is about as careless as a medical staff that would put a concussed player back in the game.

Agreed.

I've only seen my new neighbor once, and that was to take the trash out to the curb last week. I don't know if he beats his wife, but I certainly hope he doesn't.

I fully agree with MUBurrow.
Just curious, does the team physician travel with the team on away games?
-
If the medical staff cleared him then he can play. Nothing to see here unless he's diagnosed with a concussion. If he is, then it falls solely on the medical staff.
