Check out this good summary of why telling people they have CTE is dangerous. There is no causal proof that CTE causes the symptoms people exposed to RHI have. @NeurologyToday @HarvardChanSPH

Repetitive head injury exposure wasn't significantly related to cognitive or mood outcomes in aging collegiate football players, but current mood symptoms were related to subjective cognitive function in this group

Florida State is the first Undefeated Power 5 Conference Champion to not get into the College Football Playoff. Despite the ACC having a 6-4 record against the SEC this year. Despite their defense not giving up 30 points in a single game all year. Despite their offense having more yards in the ACC Championship than Michigan had in the Big 10 Championship. Despite holding Louisville’s Top 20 Offense to 6 points. Despite beating 4 Top 25 teams. Despite finding a way to win with their Back up QB in a bitter rivalry game. Despite finding a way to win with their 3rd string QB in the ACC Championship Game. Florida State EARNED their spot in the CFP on the field. With and Without Jordan Travis. You don’t punish or diminish the work of 100+ players and coaches because 1 player is not there on the field calling the shots. FSU always answered the bell this year and their response to losing their QB was to play POSSESSED ON DEFENSE. It’s an absolute travesty that they were excluded from the CFP.

Are there differences in how collegiate athletes recover from concussion from sports versus non-sport mechanisms of injury (MOI)? New research revealed that collegiate athletes w/ non-sport MOI experienced more symptoms & longer time to return to sport.

Heartbroken for Jordan Travis. Just two years ago he nearly gave up on football altogether, but stuck with it to bring his “dream school” Florida State back to dominance. He went from being booed on his own field to a Heisman contender. He epitomizes what we love about college football.
