There’s a reason they have medical staff on the sidelines. Keep kids from making dumb decisions with long term

consequences.

Concussion protocol was established because kids and coaches couldn’t be trusted to do the right thing or didn’t have the experience to assess a potentially dangerous situation. The medical staff should have known better in this situation.

Lisfranc surgery for Rose

Why not just put Wilson in?

Amazed Wilson didn't enter the portal on Monday.

Apparently their 3rd/4th string QB with a busted foot was a better option

BYU Fan

9:11am

He had a few good throws so they thought he was better

Bobmarleyjr

Because he's not healthy either. Is my guess.

That's trying to put lipstick on a pig. You'll see Saturday. He is fine.

2FarGone

9:22am

Exactly. If they were so close to even, rose can’t be better injured.

Boring

That situation alone should push Isaac to enter transfer portal.

Very responsible of KWhitt to drug him up and keep marching him out there.

9:01am

Seriously wonder how he continues to do this kind of stuff.

To be fair, we did the same thing with Taysom. He tried to tough it out that

And to be further fair, we got rid of all those coaches the next year

Did they replace the ortho covering the game that injected him and sent him back

This! And then Taysom had to have his midfoot joints fused the following week.

Is it possible to cause further damage?

It absolutely would predictably cause further damage. That's why he had to have

Very much depends on the extent of the initial injury

Holy cow. No wonder he stunk so bad in the 2nd half. Why didn't

I am now almost positive their RB played with a concussion, what a cesspool

He definitely looked concussed

Shoot em up and push him back out on the field. Not a great look for Whitt or the Utah program.

Meh. Taysom played through his too. Rose is a competitor. #respect

Taysom didn't try to play the second half against Nebraska with a Lisfranc. It's

He tried to play again in the second quarter after the injury.

Marvelous

The doctor at the game told Taysom that playing wouldn't make it any worse, so

10:14am

We did the same thing with both Taysom and Riley Nelson...

cougarBee

9:13am

Taysom didn't play the 2nd half against Nebraska with that injury. We didn't do the same thing.

spugeddy24

9:16am

I'm pretty sure he played into the 3rd and possibly even briefly in the 4th.

byubyu

9:44am

Mangum came in with 12 minutes left in the 4th.

molodyets

9:58am

Wrong. Hill played almost a whole quarter before Mangum came in.

10:07am

There’s a reason they have medical staff on the sidelines. Keep kids from making dumb decisions with long term

WDaddy

9:27am

False narrative. Taysom or medical staff didn't even try to play 2nd half

osbooks

9:30am

Yes he did. Magnum didn't replace him until the 4th.

byubyu

9:44am

Yup, it wan't until BYU got the ball with about 12 minutes left in the 4th

Ungoy

9:58am

Yep. Taysom played the first four series of the 2nd half.

10:00am

I stand corrected. I just went back and watched snap to tackle for the game and

osbooks

10:11am

FWIW I didn't remember him playing in the 3rd either. I think he tore it doing that dumb stomping motion as he scored

Taysom tore it as he planted to escape the pocket on that run

This is either hilarious ute lore or extreme malpractice, one or the other.

Rewatching the game it really stands out

I would have been like him I think. That’s a hugely exciting moment.

Dr MoBYU

9:41am

Yeah if you celebrate a touchdown you deserve your season ending injury. What a fun take!

10:12am

I didn’t want him to get a season ending injury. I wanted him to lose. I also

buckeyecougarguy

lol his attitude was the main reason why the first half went as well as it did. Strong disagree there.

Exactly. I wish I had seen more of that from our team.

I think his play definitely ignited the team. But a little more emotional

No sympathy, just a hope that it humbles him!? Lame!

I noticed him limping near the end of the half.

Wow, that's nuts. What does that say about what Whit thinks about Wilson?

Honestly, if the Doctor says playing won't make the injury worse, and player can stand the pain, let him play.
