FRISCO, Texas - Florida Atlantic coach Lane Kiffin disputed the notion that football is "under attack," and said he's supportive of the changes being made to the game to make it safer.
"I am, definitely," Kiffin said Thursday while at Conference USA media days. "Because you see these long-term issues with these older NFL players.
"What's the most important thing? Long-term health, or how the game looks?"
Wednesday, North Carolina coach Larry Fedora drew heat for doubting the connections between football and CTE.
"I'm not sure that anything is proven that football, itself, causes [CTE]," Fedora said.
