Wilks on Luke's condition


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

So Wilks said Kuechly is “fine” and other folks here confirmed he was his normal self today. (1/2)

 

Now, sometimes symptoms don’t show up right away. Still, the Panthers may have been overly cautious last night and understandably so. (2/2).

 

Steve Wilks says Luke Kuechly was feeling a lot better today. "Luke is perfectly fine."

 

It's good Kuechly is feeling better today. But a little context: Often the post-concussion symptoms aren't felt until 2-3 days later.

luckily he's got a long week to rest up, but they need to be overly cautious with him anyway. one more bad one and his career is probably over.

His career was over last year, and now again this year... Honestly he could have 5 more and still be fine we don't know, nor does he or the doctors. You just take it situation by situation and let the doctors give their opinions and Luke can decide based on that. We really have no idea to make a statement like that, which many here have made since last night, and after last year's.

FWIW I got news from a reliable personal source that he's fine and they just wanted to keep him out. Source is a friend, so I would never have posted it as "credible", but it matches what Wilks is saying so it's reassuring that he may be fine and they were being super cautious - which makes sense.

Agreed. It's just us as humans feeling like the third strike should be enough for a player we care about as a person. But really no one knows....

This could be great news. Thanks

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
