Message: [QUOTE="Huskee11, post: 4467326, member: 7171"] I was an equal opportunity concussion guy, basketball, football, baseball. Got one in eighth grade when I was shoved while off balance playing 2x2 hoops in the driveway. Then in high school football, running the ball into the line and colliding helmet to helmet with the linebacker. In baseball while playing in a local summer baseball league, I stretched at first base for an errant throw and took an inadvertent knee to the back of my head. So if my posts start sounding garbled at some point, you will know why. This was in the sixties and early seventies. I did not see a doctor for any of them. I returned to playing fairly soon in all cases. It is very good that they have concussion protocols now and that players are not allowed back until absolutely ready. In retrospect, I`m quite sure I was not. I will be at Mohegan Sun on Sunday and am hoping very much that Nika is able to play. But if not, so be it. Her health is paramount. Also, it is a long season, UConn is hopefully healthy and peaking in March. I was also at the Princeton game and it was a very scary moment. I am assuming she was out cold. Ten days between that game and Florida State - that is probably right on the line. She was playing really well before she got injured. She has always brought the energy, but her confidence and court presence and awareness are way way up from last year. A much improved player. When she comes back, I hope she does not skip a beat.
