Chan is a classy guy. I just read his interview, and I think that mothers and dads everywhere should hear this:

"Caller: what about a medical redshirt for Sidney...

Gailey: Gailey feels that if Ford cant get better in 9 weeks.. he would be nervous ever playing him again... the RS has been considered... but from the standpoint of looking at things from a fathers perspective... he would have a hard time throwing him back out there with the slow recovery from concussion...

Wes asks Gailey about the concussion syndrome (Steve Young)... you dont hear about it much in college... Gailey wants to make sure we are smart in the way we handle this... and not just look at this year... but his whole life... even if we do redshirt Ford... do we really want to take that chance with him... just not sure.. wants to make sure we dont do anything to endanger him permanently..."

A class act from a class guy
 
I agree with the way he's handling the situation but I would think that most coaches would handle it the same way.
