It is not about trust, it's about what happens to people with a rooting interest, who tend to see what they want to see. This is a well-known, well-documented psychological phenomenon called confirmation bias.

And though there's a chance this was a late onset symptom, it's likely that he was displaying this symptom during the game if he was still displaying after the game. |

You infer that the cause was noble. Was there an epidemic of doctors and trainers putting clearly concussed players back in games under the NFHS rule that necessitated a change in Ohio law. |

I don't think the General Assembly is expecting the officials to know that a coach removed a player for a possible concussion and then sent him back in the game. But, if the official suspects a concussion and has the player removed, that official (and I hope the rest of the crew, whom he should have told) does have a legal duty to see that he stays off the field. I skimmed over the last page of comments or so in this thread. And I'm not sure anybody has actually said that the officials should have removed him. Bigjohn's beef seems to be against the coaching staff/trainers, which make me wonder why he's posting about it here. |

And it's not just NFHS games. This law applies to every level of youth sports, from the YMCA 4-year-old programs to the Varsity high school level. (Which now makes me wonder if my son's volunteer coach and official did the required CDC or NFHS concussion training last fall). |

Because the rules and laws and memos from the DOD all seem to say that the officials ARE responsible for not letting a kid return to play that day, if anyone removed him, for what appear to be head injury, concussion like symptoms. It was clear when watching the game live on TV, never said I was in the stands, that the kid was dinged. Meaning he was a bit groggy. He came back in a threw a TD and played and appeared to be OK. The point is, he WAS removed for concussion symptoms and the rule and state law say he should be done for the day. He was not.
Who is at fault?

It doesn't matter whether it is a coach or an official, whomever sees the concussion symptoms had a responsibility to remove the athlete and keep them from returning. |

Does the R have a responsibility to ask the trainer, "was he removed for head injury/concussion symptoms?"
For this rule to have any validity, I think he does. This was sent to all coaches and officials. When a player is suspended, that is the R's duty to enforce, don't you think? http://www.ohsaa.org/members/Memos/2013-08-30.pdf

What if the R has not idea why a player is removed from the game?
Once again you are asking the wrong people to be responsible for something that could easily take place without their knowledge. This is not basketball or soccer where every substitution is made with the direct supervision of the officials. Football players leave or enter the field anytime they get ready and often officials are making sure they have 11 on a side. Peace
