Breaking Discoveries in CTE Research?

Like anything else in life, the game of football has changed a lot over the years. If you compare the college football of Rockne, to the college football of Parseghian, to the college football of Holtz, to the college football of Kelly; you are going to see many changes and advances within the sport. In my eyes, the biggest hot button topic that is changing the current game of football is the concussion crisis, or Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE).

As not only the players, but all of us have become more aware and more educated of the risks associated with playing football, coaches and Universities have had to step up and create changes in order to make the game we love safer for those who play it.
