That's a lot of concussions. Hope he has a Plan B in mind when the NFL career is over.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">BeachyBear;673549 said:</div><hr>That's a lot of concussions. Hope he has a Plan B in mind when the NFL career is over.<hr></blockquote><br /><br />Professional track? In 2 years he could be in the top 8 in the US in the 200 I bet if he lost some of his upper body weight. 20.65 as a HS senior is serious speed in the deuce, and easily transfers to sub 20 second with maturity and strength training for speed. On a related note, here's hoping that Bryshon Nellum, who ran a 20.43 in that same race against Jahvid, can fully recover after being shot in the legs a few years back. He could have made a play for the Olympics this summer had he not gotten injured.

One of my favorite Cal bears, I worry for the guy. If he gets another bad concussion next year, it won't be good for his career and may want to consider alternatives.

<blockquote><div class="name-said">BeachyBear;673549 said:</div><hr>That's a lot of concussions. Hope he has a Plan B in mind when the NFL career is over.<hr></blockquote>AR had two last season. One more and he would have had to shut it down for the season.<br /><br />Of course, I hear all the time that Best "had a history of concussions" at Cal. As far as I know, the one that ended his career (and the sore back that accompanied it) was his first, but hey, it's a history of concussions!

Did Best receive his degree yet? If he hasn't, I hope he will finish it up and start a career outside of the NFL. He is clearly not able to withstand the heavy pounding that NFL RBs have to endure. His history of head injuries is worrisome to say the least. Hopefully he has already earned and saved enough to get him going in a new direction.

He had two concussions last year.<br /><br />What about Troy Polomalou(sp?). He had to miss quite a few games last year with a concussion. I believe he has had concussions before.<br /><br />I am not trying to make light of the situation, and I understand it's serious. But it's one that many football players face all the time.
