Concussion Research

[Native Nebraskan]

There was a lot of publicity about the concussion research that was going to occur with the East Stadium expansion. I for one haven’t anything in the media. Has anyone read or heard? I was thinking at the time that wow Nebraska was going to be a national leader. What is happening?

IT is happening. Researchers don't usually tweet at Husker fans. It's not exactly edge of your seat stuff. It's years and years of mostly boring scientific analysis and testing...

Thanks for the article. Good stuff. The NFL is putting $100M into research and I didn’t know if Nebraska might be involved.

They put a historically bad team on the field, inducing fans to bang their heads on the wall in frustration, and measured the results.
