Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

So so damn sad. My guess is that he got a cardiac contusion which led to a VT or VF arrest. He got CPR and were able to use the AED so praying for the best.

Nothing was off about the hit, didnt hit his head or anything. That makes me think it was an underlying condition in his chest that the hit effected, maybe something like a blood clot he didn’t know about or something that ruptured

Ya definitely wasn't the hit that directly caused it

ABC needs to put other programming on. The studio guys are struggling and aren’t well versed in this situation.

ESPN as well

They’ve handled it well. All things considered. Not speculating, which is good. But producers need to just put on new programming.

They said he had a pulse bit wasn't breathing, so it sounds like it's not a heart issue?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Is this good or bad?

No bueno.

It's awful and there's no way they play

What can you put on that wouldn’t be viewed as insensitive?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

They’re saying cardiac arrest

Not good.

No way. Even if they did, someone is certain to get hurt because their mind wouldn’t be in the game

30 for 30, and local news.

All in the family

Denmark played after the Christian Eriksen situation but I'm not sure that was the best decision. I'm hoping the same outcome for this young man as Eriksen was on the pitch a few months later.

Cosby show reruns...

NSIAP (and I know it has been posted many times). This should be pinned at the top of every forum on VolNation.

 

[ACvol3]

They’re saying cardiac arrest

Who’s saying that?

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Heartbreaking scene. Just really hope he can pull through.

 

[csprig9]

They’re saying cardiac arrest

I think it’s respiratory arrest with a pulse but not breathing
Hard crushing chest shot can cause that

 

[UTMVol76]

Please get these folks off the TV. WTF!

 

[#JuanVol]

They are on every espn/abc telecast

 

[Volator]

New respect for Booger McFarland. He says they need to cancel the game. Most important is the player’s health.

I cannot believe the NFL has not called this game yet. Truly ghoulish behavior by the league. Claim to care about player safety, but quite possibly the ugliest injury in football history has just happened and they want to wait a bit longer to see if players can move on and play. Just gross.

Fans should leave the stadium. Not in anger, just in solidarity with the Hamblin’s family. Screw the NFL for not already calling it.

The even worse part, their immediate reaction was to give the players 5 minutes to warm up then keep playing. SMH
