Sounds good, but, citation please. I don't see anything here (below) about sitting a tick, but I've been known to be wrong in the past. Also, at our local board's interpretation meeting last night we were told that such a player could continue to play if he was cleared by a health care professional during a timeout. But that's just our little corner of Connecticut.

3-3-8: Any player who exhibits signs, symptoms or behaviors consistent
with a concussion (such as loss of consciousness, headache, dizziness,
confusion, or balance problems) shall be immediately removed from the game
and shall not return to play until cleared by an appropriate health care
professional.
