I thought that it was poor of the NFHS to put it into the rules book and said so back when it happened, primarily due to some of the instructions which obviously shouldn't pertain to game officials, but that doesn't change the fact that it was indeed published in the rules book, and to my knowledge the position of the NFHS on concussions has not changed.
Therefore, if a player does suffer a concussion during a contest that directive would apply, and the game official has the obligation to not allow the person back in without proper permission.
