Gary Danielson Apologises for His Comments

Gary Danielson has apologized for the comments he made after a student photographer from Georgia was knocked unconscious during a broadcast. The student photographer, Chamberlain Smith, was knocked out while CBS was broadcasting Georgia’s win against Auburn in week 12 of college football. The college football analyst, Gary Danielson, works for CBS.

Running Back, Brian Herrien, hit Smith when he was pushed out of bounds. As the student photographer laid on the ground, Gary made some insensitive comments regarding Smith’s health while she was  unconscious on the floor. He even went as far as giggling and being more concerned about the players’ health. Gary Danielson had to be told by an announcer that Chamberlain Smith is a woman and not a man.

Gary Danielson noted before another Georgia match that he was not aware of what was happening on the ground, and he was making real-time comments. He also stated that he might have been the last person to learn what happened when Herrien knocked Smith out.
