Concussions Send West Virginia Quarterback Out of Football: After suffering five concussions in the past 14 months, West Virginia Mountaineers quarterback Clint Trickett is retiring from football. The senior had hoped to play in the Liberty Bowl as his final game on Monday, but he can't get medically cleared following the concussion he suffered five weeks ago. Trickett admitted not telling the team's medical staff about some of the concussions. "In fairness to our training staff, they didn't know. I didn't tell them, so that was on me," he said.
