  Sitting at his locker, one of the first inside the entrance to Ohio State football's locker room at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Marvin Harrison Jr. showed no signs of trauma or distress. About 90 minutes earlier, the All-America receiver lay crumpled underneath a goal post. He elevated to catch a pass in the back of the end zone, and Georgia defensive back Javon Bullard laid a hit on him. Harrison said he never lost consciousness. However, after evaluation, OSU's medical staff placed him in concussion protocol and took his helmet away. While he said he wanted to return to the game, he understood why he could not finish the Buckeyes' 42-41 loss.

"I did my best, you know - I want to be out there with my team," Harrison said. "I respect the trainer's decision. At the end of the day they're just looking out for my health. But yeah, I definitely tried to fight." Harrison said he had experienced concussions prior to his Ohio State career. He said Saturday's experience "kind of was a similar situation." Yet he also said he felt good enough to return to the game. According to Ohio State athletics' policy on concussions and head trauma, athletes are to be removed from practice or competition when they experience concussion-like symptoms. They cannot return to participation that day if the concussion is confirmed. If concussion is confirmed, athletes undergo evaluation by the athletic trainer or team physician, including "symptom assessment, SCAT5 evaluation, and clinical evaluation for cervical spine trauma, fractures and/or intracranial bleeding." - Cleveland Plain Dealer
