TCU's Gary Patterson addresses concussion flap
| PODCAST |
|---|
| TCU coach Gary Patterson joins Mike Tirico's Weekend Blitz to addressed the report that he berated a team physician for holding a player out after being diagnosed with concussion-like symptoms. Listen  |
"I was just trying to find out. It wasn't so much about whether he played or not, because he was told he had a concussion, so he was out. But you know, I was just trying to find out information about what was going on."
More by Patterson:
"You know, it's well documented: I'm awfully intense on the sidelines, so uh … you know, everything else is fine. Our doc's a great guy and did everything appropriately on the sidelines to make sure the young man was taken care of, which we've always done here at TCU."
