Something is surely rotten in Denmark. I contend there's some other entity behind this. Is there a relationship between Fester and this Dr? Anyone know?
Fester hired him to replace Sebastianelli.
Oakland Raiders linebacker Jason Cabinda quote tweeted the initial report from Penn Live stating “lemme go ahead and save y’all the time of speculating…. this is complete and total BS straight up.”"

One day after Penn State head football coach James Franklin was named in a lawsuit by a former University physician claiming he was pressured to rush injured players back onto the field, Giantsrunning back Saquon Barkley shared a much different experience.
As a freshman, Barkley suffered an ankle injury in Week 4 of the 2015 season and now credits Franklin for keeping him from making a shortsighted decision at the time.
“I personally wanted to get back on the field as fast as I could,” Barkley told NJ Advance Media Tuesday at the NFL100 kickoff event. “And play as fast as I could. James Franklin was awesome for me. I tried to force it and he just wouldn’t allow me force it. I sat out the next two weeks and was able to come out and be healthy the rest of the season.”
Despite sitting out against Army and Indiana the two weeks following his injury, Barkley went on to rush for 1,076 yards in 11 games as a freshman. Three years later, Barkley was the No. 2 overall pick in the NFL Draft.
“Coach Franklin’s been nothing but a role model and mentor to me,” Barkley said. “I feel like he’s part of my family.”

Franklin's going to come out of this just fine, if he keeps getting guys like Saquon beating the drum of truth. I appreciate Mrs. Simmons' efforts, but she can't move the needle like Saquon can.
Keep it going, boys. Next up, Miles Sanders. And let's hear from Chris Godwin. These guys, by speaking up, can effectively shout down ESPN.

Good god, those "recommendations" are alarming. More than anything it seems as if Dr. Lynch is one of those doctors that do not like to be questioned at all by anyone. Unfortunately, I've had plenty of opportunities to interact with doctors and it is not unusual for them to react negatively to their opinion (aka "diagnosis") being questioned let alone proved wrong. God-complex comes to mind.
Yep, that doc is completely unrealistic. No way the doc should have the say over all trainers. etc., plus "don't contact me, I'll contact you" mentality. Sounds like he has a bigger ego than HCs.
What the hell, Judge Louie got paid $8 mil for his. Might as well cobble a few together myself and send em in. Can't hurt.
Lynch had to realize this was coming - that he listed no names in his lawsuit to corroborate his allegations but that anecdotes from current and past players could (and in this case would) flood the media with their stories. Lynch is losing public opinion already on this badly. Barkley's account of his experience is a dagger. He should drop this silly $hit now while he can still save face.
What do you call the guy who finishes last in his class at med school? Doctor....
Even the best doctor will get it wrong some of the time. Sounds to me like this doctor needs to be saved from himself at this point. Though I'll reserve full judgement until the rest of the story unfolds -- if it ever unfolds.
Guys that finish last in their med school class don't get orthopedic surgery residencies. Not by a long shot.
As I said at the beginning, there is more to this story behind the scenes. Too much of it makes no sense at all.

No one is ever going to know "all the details" (and the vast majority of folks don't care, obviously.... since the vast majority of folks won't even bother to read the information that IS put in front of them).
Couple things:
This one, I DO KNOW. Without question:
1) If this was a Physician, who used to be a PSU wrestler, who was employed as the team physician at Michigan, and was filing this exact same suit against Jimmah Harbaugh and the UMich ICA, the commentary on this board would be 180 degrees different.
Guaranteed.
These next four items, from reading what has been made available and from listening to those folks who do have some worthwhile perspectives, and from observing some of the participants over the years, I think I would place a very high probability on:
2) It is highly unlikely that CJF inappropriately pushed kids to play or practice - when their participation presented a high risk of further aggravating injuries (and NO ONE, not even in the court filing, has even suggested that he ever did that).
3) The genesis of the kerfluffle betwixt CJF and Lynch was likely far less nefarious than most of the "fan boy" speculation would have one believe.
The kerfluffle was, in all likelihood, catalyzed by the run-of-the-mill shit that almost always precipitates kerfluffles like this.
Namely: Misunderstandings / Egos / Stoopid / breakdowns in communication / and genuine differences of opinion on debatable issues.
ie: The type of stuff that "managers" manage every day..... Managers overseeing large operations, and those overseeing small groups, and everything in between.
4) This kerfluffle woulda' coulda' been properly managed - and never, ever led to anything that would generate the interest that it has. Management talent equal to what one would expect from the governor of the night shift at the local WalMart woulda' coulda' handled a situation of this type...… and folks like that likely do handle situations of this type on a regular basis.
5) PSU ICA is a $100 Million operation.... that is managed by folks who's capabilities lie somewhere south of the typical WalMart night manager - - - - and thus, through their incompetence, the kerfluffle was morphed into this situation we are seeing now: Lawsuit / Extensive Publicity / and a high likelihood of significant amounts of cash thrown into a bonfire.
(Actually this one is pretty much a sure thing
ie: Par for the course for PSU circa 2019.
I actually agree with you on 1-3 but then as usual you go off the rails and back to your old self 4-5 and i.e.
Who cares about ICA's $100 million. What about the $2 billion from Penn State Health that's also a defendant?

So this doctor is recommending during his exit interview that while these kids are hurt, and in the darkest points in their careers, they should have no contact whatsoever with their coach?
It's kind of bizarre that this lawsuit is happening while Andrew Luck and Gronk are retiring because of being in dark places while always rehabbing. I'm no shrink, but it seems to me cutting them off from contact with the team is the last thing they would need.
Probably close to that number. He has a fixed base of $523,162. The rest is a budgeted performance bonus (what kind of fvcking nimrod budgets $xxx,784??? I mean, where are the fvcking pennies?). He probably came in close to that number, but it could have been more or less.
Yes, that document does indicate that 49% of his time is to be devoted to ICA-Athletic Medicine. Compensation should follow that formula to a greater or lesser degree (depending on what activities are bonusable). However, he remains under contract to Milton Hershey, so that 49% of his time would simply be re-allocated to other activities and his compensation level.
And the commentary on espn and talk radio would be different too (if anything was even said in the first place).
This is a disturbing video.please,can someone just call this 50 grand and entrance fee!
Keep it coming, boys, keep it coming. Make ESPN scroll it on the bottom of the screen.
The rhetoric sounds natural, but no. I don't believe anyone in their right mind would want to extinguish the football program and the wonderful programs it supports.
Also the continous mention of $50 grand...what is there not to understand.
It’s reassuring to hear these former players (as well as the former qb at Vanderbilt) speak of their experiences.
If we get through Friday afternoon without any new bombs on Pennlive or in the Inquirer then I’ll feel better.

Impressive to see the moms jumping in with their view.
Can we make Mrs Simmons and others lifetime team parents .... ? Assign them to a valued recruit .... LOL

I feel like confronting Lynch at HMC but can’t bc I’m still a newbie and would surely lose the pissing match.
Penn State is defending itself and its people?
Because without the football team earning a surplus, how would his and Molly's art museum be funded?
