We've seen harder hits, the guy didn't stumble off the field and collapse on the sidelines, and he didn't have any pain. People look at that and think, why isn't he in there. Well, the fact is he had a freak injury that prevented him from being able to throw the football. It may not be as macho as Tebow getting knocked into next week by Kentucky, but the fact is the guy couldn't have played QB against Jackson State, much less Alabama.
Why do people think they brought his dad down? Obviously it was to convince him that he couldn't go back in. There's nobody like dad to say, "look son, you can't play anymore tonight."
