heard about it but that he was able to walk off the field?
in the pac10 tonight ... jake locker, washingtons freshman star qb (one of few bright spots for the team) was hit in the head and taken out on a stretcher. he turned out to be okay and even returned from the hospital late in the fourth. it didnt look too good though and the players were emotional all night and there was all kinds of fighting on the field. tons of personal fouls, players ejected left and right...

Well i wouldn't say brennan walked off the field, more like stumbled. Looked helmet to helmet, boarder line cheap shot because the guy was leading with the helmet

At full speed it looked like he lead with his shoulder, but on the replay, yeah, I agree it was a helmet first hit.

Marcus Riley from Elk Grove HS in Elk Grove, CA. He comes from the same schools as Chicago Bears LB Lance Briggs.
At the start of the season I get a phone call from a strange Fresno number. I pick it up and the guy says, "hey coach, it's Marcus Riley". I'm like, "what are you doing calling me?". One of our former players is #69 Andrew Jackson the starting ORG. Andrew gave Riley my number. I made a high school BIG HITS DVD about 4 years ago (www.reelsportsreplay.com) and Riley has a few hits on the DVD and he wanted another copy. Nice guy. Ferocious HIT last night.
In fact, Sacramento area players litter Fresno's roster. Proud of how they are playing this year.

Being a Dogs fan I was feeling pretty bad about the game, but I jumped off my couch when I saw Riley drop the hammer on Brennan.

holy cow that was a GREAT hit How? That's how players get hurt, by showboats trying to be cool and make ESPN. Case and Point.

Geez. QB tip-toeing against the grain. He's lucky his career isn't over.

But hopefully not a helmet-first contact game...

When a defender comes that fast and leaves his feet head first into the ball-carrier...you now have a chance at a helmet to helmet collision.
If that defender was on my team, I would have a serious heart to heart with him. He put his life in jeopardy there. When you launch yourself, basically turning your body into a spear, someone can get hurt seriously.
He could have still made one heck of a hit, but used his shoulder.

But hopefully not a helmet-first contact game... No. He shouldn't have hit him with his hat. I'll agree with that.
