Markus Out Tonight (Concussion Protocol)

[Heisenberg]

Wojo told Homer that Markus "banged his head when they got back from Florida."

He is in the protocol and it's up to the Doctors to clear him.

Damn, this comes after I laid the 21! Oh well, get right, Markus.

That last shot by the dolphins had to make you scream.

In the presser Woj said he may not be available Saturday.

I'd anticipate him being available given that he was in the arena and dancing on made baskets.

This seems like a smokescreen to force Bruce Weber to practice two game plans this week. I'm not a doctor, but I feel like courtside at a basketball game is not where you want a player who you are concerned with having a concussion.

In similar news, Weber announced that one of their starting forwards is a "longshot" to play against us. He's missed the last four games with a knee injury.

Is this like when Jonathan Lucroys wife "dropped a suitcase" on his "hand"?

There you have it. So it's settled. Both Markus and the KState kid will be playing SAT.

So far he's sufficiently cleared to sit on the bench with no restrictions.  I'd be surprised if he's not back at practice by Friday and playing Saturday.

Just a couple weeks ago we had posters thinking Jayce was done for the year and others thinking he could've played the first game he missed but Wojo just sat him for precautionary reasons.  Turned out it was somewhere in between.  Chances are nobody on Scoop knows.  I've seen guys miss games after sitting on the bench with concussion like symptoms.  Concussion recovery isn't the same for everyone.

Markus had a boot on his head this morning

I remember only one poster saying this ... and then doubling-down ... and then tripling down.

I will be very surprised if this is not a season-ending injury.

OK ... so medical diagnoses aren't his specialty.

I heard Lucroy punched Randy Wolf in the face and broke his hand.

Maybe Markus ran into Baby Joey and headbutted him...

I thought Zur Krone closed.

This is why you don't stand up until the plane has stopped moving.

the fact he was there with the bright lights and loud noise indicates to me it isn't a serious situation.  A legit concussion would lead him to have to avoid bright light and likely wear covers over his ears to keep out loud noises.

Kind of true. Newer research has pushed early exposure to lighting and sound to help recovery. I would agree, he didn't look like he was suffering from a lot of the effects, however he was not taxing his cardio system either.
