UNC’s Fedora causes stir with CTE comment at ACC media days
Posted Jul 18, 2018
UNC coach Larry Fedora said Wednesday he doesn’t believe it’s been proven that football causes the degenerative brain disease CTE and offered a passionate defense of a sport he believes is “under attack.” Fedora described the sport as an integral part of American culture and said it is “safer right now than it’s ever been,” though he acknowledged the risk of concussions.
