On Saturday Tennessee offensive lineman Brett Kendrick, a redshirt senior, sustained a concussion and was eventually pulled from the Kentucky game for that injury. But according to multiple sources inside the Tennessee program who reached out to Outkick under the condition of anonymity Kendrick wasn’t pulled from the game until there were only 22 seconds left in the fourth quarter and that was only after he threw up on the sideline.
According to these same sources Kendrick suffered the concussion late in the second quarter and was unable to remember the entire second half of the game. Indeed, Kendrick was so out of sorts that he suffered a procedure penalty for being unable to line up properly on the line of scrimmage, something that never happens to the fifth year senior.
quote:
At halftime other linemen recognized that Kendrick was woozy, but Kendrick didn’t want to let his team down and didn’t approach trainers to notify them of his injury.
That was because offensive line coach Walt Wells, who multiple sources believe had to know Kendrick was concussed, repeatedly exhorted Kendrick, “We need you to go!” and pointed out that Kendrick’s back up had not made the trip to Lexington.
quote:
After the game, Kendrick didn’t know the score and his visible appearance was so bad that athletic director John Currie approached him and said he didn’t look good.
Outkick reached out to Brett Kendrick and members of his family to request comment on this story and the assertions made by those close to the program about this situation, but they declined to speak to any media.
Other sources close to the Tennessee football program, however, confirmed that there is an active investigation into Kendrick’s concussion and who knew about it on the Tennessee sideline.
That’s because yesterday the Kendrick family contacted athletic director John Currie about their concerns with the medical treatment their son received and requested that Tennessee determine how Brett Kendrick was able to play for so long with a concussion.
The family met with the training staff yesterday afternoon to express their concerns.
When the family arrived for that meeting with the training staff head coach Butch Jones was present and denied having any knowledge about Kendrick’s concussion or the fact that he remained in the game for two quarters after suffering that injury.
The family has another meeting scheduled with athletic director John Currie this afternoon to discuss the ongoing investigation.

For sure, this is just a straight hit piece.
Not that he's wrong.

If this is accurate, Wells (and possibly others) should be fired with cause.

Looking at the gifs of him on the field, it's obvious that something wasn't right. He didn't even know that the ball had been snapped in at least one of them.

Clay Travis sooooo wants to be the Paul Finebaum of the internet. The only thing he's good at is self-promotion, which I admit, he's very good at it.

Butch is reaping what he sows.
Add the fact that his alumni, Vol for Life, coordinator Antoine Davis — who is probably the most well liked and respected person near that dumpster fire of a program — resigned today says A LOT as well.

He's been pretty good at predicting nearly everything that has happened at ESPN over the last 2 years. He also likes to look at facts and find out what actually happened instead of claiming race baiting frauds like Michael Bennett are brave heroes or comparing Kaepernick to a modern day Rosa Parks.

Unique, but strangely not the only time i've seen it. You are really going after UT, why the hatred?
