Eyewitness Testimony from a Passenger

[CampHoosier 3,697]

In the report, she states the group left a party then dropped off Davis in the parking lot at Memorial Stadium and that it appeared Davis was attempting to jump onto the front of the Jeep.

 

"He was just trying to be dumb. I have no idea what was going through his head," the report quotes Johanningsmeier as saying.

 

She also said Holt was shaken by the incident.

 

"It wasn't just any random person," she is quoted as saying. "It was one of his teammates. He was scared. He didn't know what to do. I want people to understand it was an accident."

Everyone was so quick to jump on Holt, while all along, it was Devin….

Touchy few days for everyone it seems...

@Justin_Albers: Great job by @MikeMillerHT to talk to a passenger from Davis accident. It was then plagiarized by another IU reporter. Weak. #iubb

This truly was a freak accident arising out of a kid making an astronomically stupid mistake.  Thankfully, it sounds like DD will be okay and hopefully, EH is able to move on from this emotionally.

Has anybody heard if davis has any other injuries besides his head? Hope both can get over this as soon as possible and davis returning to competition will prob help holt tremendous

I was wondering who he was talking about. I only follow a few writers since my twitter feed fills up pretty quickly.

It's a fractured skull. Was on respirator, now breathing on his own. Worse than we all thought. 

[Lt. John McClaine 541]

Damn a fractured skull is a big time injury. 

[CampHoosier 3,697]

Damn a fractured skull is a big time injury. 

 

It's very bad. Hard to detect internal bleeding. Increase in susceptibility to seizures by 20%. 6 weeks at best. But considering he was just taken off of a ventilator, I don't think he's playing this season. But he is breathing on his own which is key

The fracture is not the major issue in terms of recovery time. The fracture is a hairline fracture. It will heal in four to six weeks. How quickly his brain recovers will determine how long he is out.

Witness tells The Herald-Times that Devin Davis seemed to be goofing around when he was stuck by vehicle http://bit.ly/1yRvRDb  #iubb

UPDATE: Devin Davis suffered fractured skull in accident. Being monitored for swelling, in and out of sleep according to sources. #iubb

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Thanks, respirator part though? 

 

I hope he can play basketball again at some point... :/

The wording of this tweet is very odd...

Source wanted to make clear that Davis was NOT hit as soon as he got out of car. Instead, car circled back around and him him at full speed.

For sake of clarity, my "liking" some of these terrible posts is a "liking" of the act of sharing information and not the actual information that is being shared. 

 

Hope that is understood.

I think that was to clarify that Holt didn't hit DD immediately after he got out aka not seeing him or being negligent. Poorly worded

[BGleas 7,880]

Hopefully/probably. Poorly worded is an understatement. I'd almost say it's irresponsibly worded. The implication is that the car essentially did a circle and ran him over.

I was going to say the same thing...the skull itself is a very tough bone and with a lot of blood flow so healing is pretty fast...the brain though...is tricky...he might be so concussed that his migraines, balance, neuroreceptors and a host of other items will bother him forever...kind of like a veteran after being in a IED explosion...maybe you’d walk away from the actual explosion, but the brain bashing last a long while, if not permanent
