He hasn't been cleared yet. Horrible injury, forgot his own name for a week. What is unsure right now if he'll even be able to play football again or not. Last I heard we were looking into giving him a medical scholarship so he can still attend Ole Miss on scholarship while not playing football.

Preciate it

Hate it for the kid. After getting rated, yes even at a 3*, his senior year and committing to an SEC program it has to suck to be looking at this situation in his life.

That sounds less like a regular concussion and more like the kind of Traumatic Brain Injury that effects accident victims, soldiers, and those who've been severely beaten/assaulted. Scary!

I've never heard of a school giving a medical scholarship to a recruit (thought they only did that for players) but if he isn't well it would be awesome if OM could do so.
