Player Stabbed

[/\PP ST/\TE GRAD 09]

So glad the kid is ok. Hopefully he'll make a complete recovery. But. If he misses final exams and flunks a couple classes will he be ineligible for next fall?

He won't flunk classes for missed exams. The Dean of Students and his professors will work with his academic advisors to work out a time to take them when he's able to. Most likely he'll be given an Incomplete for each class and will have the until the end of Summer 2 to complete his finals.

I think asu24 is trolling us

What was trolling about 24's comment? It was a real possibility until another poster cleared it up.

I know Moose is the man and gives us some great insight on many things, but I don't think even his great wisdom was needed to know that a player or any student would not be punished for missing a final due to being stabbed. For his/her sake I hope it was a troll job.

Do you guys have any idea how many fights happen inside and outside fast food restaurants? I can tell you from personal experience responding to them that there are quite a few.

Since one poster won't check or doesn't know how to check Google (youtube search Cookout fights) I'll link a couple that happened outside Cookouts. I will NOT embed them in the post as there is a lot of bad language and other things, as you can guess since it's a fight. One of them happened at UNCC. Being at a Cookout or any fast food place is not a guarantee that the same thing would not have happened. Sorry.

I was being sarcastic. I still stand by my post that he shouldn't be out at 2:30 in the morning.

Telling a college kid not to be out at 2:30 in the morning is like...telling a college kid not to be out at 2:30 in the morning.

Being out that late in Boone isn't an inherently bad thing.

NewApp just had to stir the pot. All I care about is the welfare of those involved. Families are hurting over this. Chide remarks posted on message boards don't console or help anything or anyone.

It was in this case. He should have been studying for exams.

[firemoose]

Really? Didn't look like sarcasm. Maybe next time you ought to clarify and state it's sarcasm since many of your posts seem to be misinterpreted by a lot of people on this board.

I happen to agree with bcoach when he stated "It only means that sometimes you need to watch what position you put yourself in.", and I'll even take it further and say always can apply in place of sometimes. There are times when anyone can find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time through no fault of their own but as most of us have gotten older you tend to be more careful about the situations you place yourself into. Doesn't always apply to a 21 year old.

[AppStateNews]

It was in this case. He should have been studying for exams.

Unless he didn't have any exams coming up for a few days. Or he was already prepared for the exams. Or he already studied that night and went out to hang out with some friends for an hour to clear his mind. Or.. the options are endless. Hindsight is 20/20.

He's a college student. College students go out and have fun when their responsibilities allow them to. This isn't anything new.

I haven't seen many details on Fuller's condition, but the note in that Journal story that he was transported from Watauga Medical to Baptist is concerning. Hope he is OK and recovering well.

Same here.

Hopefully he'll be allowed an incomplete and finish in summer school.

Quote from the Journal story.
Fuller was admitted to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, and a hospital spokesperson said Thursday afternoon that Fuller was listed in good condition.

That's about all you'll get unless you're a family member.

As for the transport to Wake, we often transport patients with "penetrating trauma" injuries, if they are stable, as Wake sees more of them and is better equipped to handle a situation should they take a turn for the worse, which those injuries can sometimes do. But given the "good" condition statement after evaluation it sounds to me, as someone who has been doing this for 25+ years, that he should ok after recovery time.

Important issue that I'm following closely, but this thread is really, REALLY dumb so far....

[firemoose]

Didn't start out that way. But you know how things go.

By chance was the wound of such severity that a Level 1 trauma facility was sought? That being said is Baptist Level 1 facility? I know there is one in CLT.

[firemoose]

No scat. That is a reason but several signs point to it not being the case in this instance. If it was that severe the only way to transport is to fly him, weather permitting. Otherwise we do an emergency ground transport, but only if the condition is life threatening. That's why I said "stable enough". And if it was that severe he would not have been listed in "good" condition upon admittance and evaluation. Good is the best condition code under most instances. There are a lot worse codes. Even fair is worse than good.

Nothing against any of the area hospitals and docs around here. I know most of them. But they don't often see penetrating trauma injuries and Baptist, Mission, and CMC Main do. As I said sometimes things can happen with those type of traumas and it's better to be in a place to deal quickly with it than not, just in case.

[ASU84]

Baptist is most certainly a level 1 trauma center. I have worked in a county south of there in fire and ems for 30 years and that is where all serious trauma or "potentially serious trauma" goes.

What is your experience with Mission,firemoose? The Google website had an overwhelming amount of bad reviews.

I've only had to go there a couple of times. But they do have MAMA and we call them if flight services from JC or Wake are not available. Most often, given the area of the state we're in, we take patients to Johnson County, TN, Wake, or CMC (but usually as a last resort or for a very specific reason).

I do know people that have been admitted there and had surgeries done. Those all went well but I've heard the bad reports as well. Personally, unless I was in that area and had no choice I would request to be taken elsewhere. But that's just me.

[HeffnerIV]

Any update on his condition?
