Dead wrong by NFHS rules.


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. (See NFHS Suggested Guidelines for Management of Concussion in Appendix A on page 76.)

"Mr. Dead Wrong" NY state doesn't allow a professional to clear a player once an official disqualifies them for symptoms of a concussion. We can confer with a professional, if one is available, before we make the assessment. But once made the kid is done until he is evaluated and cleared by the school.

NY state doesn't deal with notes during the game. Once a decision is made its final and not reversible by anyone.

Your original post mentions nothing about NY, and Altor only mentioned "in high school." Does Altor work in NY?

Nevada is right, by NFHS rule, your correction of Altor was incorrect.

They are not dead wrong. Any state can make a rule more restrictive. NY State is just saying they do not allow that time to take place during the game or get approval. And this rule appears to be more restrictive in that state.

Let's go through this sequence again.

I have no idea where Altor is located. Therefore, the default assumption is that he is inquiring about NFHS rules.

This statement does not have any qualifier, such as "in my state" or "in NY state"...
Thus it looks as if the poster is providing a general answer for everyone.

I didn't write that the poster or his particular state was incorrect in what they may do, rather I very specifically noted that the statement was wrong "by NFHS rules" and included the NFHS citation.
Had either of the previous posters asked for or noted a specific state regulation, I wouldn't have bothered to post. As it was the response was clearly misleading and confusing to anyone not familiar with his specific area.

Gotcha Nevada.
