Former University of Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser he has been diagnosed with traumatic brain injury.

Brennan said the condition was caused from injuries suffered in a 2010 two-car accident in which he was a passenger. Brennan was hospitalized for eight days with injuries to his head, ribs and collarbone from the Big Island accident on Nov. 19, 2010.

Brennan signed with the Los Angeles KISS of the Arena Football League on Oct. 29, 2013. During the team’s physical examinations, Brennan’s condition was detected. Brennan said he was diagnosed with TBI following a series of medical tests. Dr. Vernon Williams specializes in neurology and pain management.

The KISS placed Brennan on the physically-unable-to-perform list last week.

“They did some tests, and there were major concerns about me playing football,” said Brennan, adding, “I was medically not cleared to play.”

Brennan said he will meet with a neurologist in Hawaii next week for a second opinion. He also wants to find out why he received medical clearance to play in what became short stints with the Hartford Colonials of the United Football League in 2011 and Saskatchewan of the Canadian Football League in 2012.

Brennan said he and his Honolulu neurologist will review “these new tests just so I can know if football is really over.”

Have a good Friday and a safe yet insane weekend.

GO WARRIORS!

You can’t control a random fan running onto a court or field.

perhaps, this will be the start of recruiting football coaches from the mainland which may be very detrimental to UH’s fortunes

“don’t hate or degrade” – my comments on Vele were more like questions as to why the coaches are not using him at LB

as J.V.,Sr posted, JV,Jr would like the opportunity to play at LB, but the coaches have a different mind and that’s their call

“support” – hell, I’ve supporting UH football since 1959 – not only by being a season ticket holder since 9/68 – how about U?

why the 9 year spread? – students went for free, by paying the “athletic fee, and then the 4 years active duty

While, I am not thrilled or happy with Coach Torres, unceremonious departure, there is no need to vilify another person, with a racial pejorative. It serves no purpose other than to marignalize someone, and moveover, for real kanaka maoli, is not in keeping with practice of malama pono.

I would be remissed to say (and for transparency sake) to say my old friend, Doug Semones, was both a caucasian and a Hawaiian at heart coach, as they come. Furthermore, he reinstituted the Kahuku program, and made it one of the elite programs in the state, as he reamains one of their most successful coaches in history.

Thanks for the pics from practice, ST. Got a fund raising call from a DLB (#28 last season). Stressed to him to make sure he gets to unsupervised practices. The kids I watched who put in the time during unsupervised practices did well.

Hope to see Craig Cofer tomorrow at the Phoenix Aloha Festival. And maybe I can find some poi…

Happy Aloha Friday!
