Tough day for him today. Not sure how many years he was at SIU but I know he did a heck of a job there and at NIU and I think he'll do a solid job at the U of M. Hope he's back next week for the Gophers.

Re: Jerry Kill
My thoughts are with him and his family.
I saw it happen on TV...as for some reason ESPN didn't cut away from the seizure for about 5 seconds...terrible thing to see. Hope he recovers quicklyComment

Re: Jerry Kill
also, not sure if you guys saw but former pleasant valley/iowa walkon brett greenwood had a massive heart attack while working out at his high school yesterday afternoon. great kid and he is looking at maybe a 50/50 chance of making it. even if he does he could have major brain damage.
i hate it when bad stuff like this happensComment

Re: Jerry Kill
It was BTN, not ESPN, but they cut away VERY quickly and I was glad that they didn't cut back to him. BTN didn't show him on the ground very long and it was right after it happened. I was glad they didnt show more of it, as we didnt know the severity of what happened. The word is that he's going to be fine and that he was never in a life threatening condition.Originally posted by UNI83 View PostComment

Re: Jerry Kill
Greenwood is in intensive care in Iowa City. Luckily, he was working out before PV's sophomore football game, and the trainer was on hand when he went down. Per the athletic trainer, his heart was stopped for a period of time, but CPR was promptly started, and they did have to shock him. That's all I know.Fight! For the Purple and the Gold!

Re: Jerry Kill
Sounds like he is stable and the team physician expects him to "recover fully" according to the StarTribune this morning. More news today. Not his first seizure, players and coaches knew of his condition but it was not publicly known until now:Originally posted by Casey'sitsallgood View Post

Re: Jerry Kill
I was watching the end of the Minnesota-New Mexico State game at a bar and the place just went silent. It was a very eery sight on the sideline of a college football game...best wishes and thoughts going out to Coach Kill (still the greatest name in college coaching).GO PANTHERS!Comment

Re: Jerry Kill
as someone who has suffered a seizure before I wish him well and know that recovery will be do-able. Just hope they give him the pills not the liquid crap. Imagine drinking medicine that tastes like a landfill, every day.Comment

Re: Jerry Kill
The latest on Greenwood is that he's still in a medically-induced coma in Iowa City, but his vitals are stabilized. Doesn't sound good, but it could be worse.Fight! For the Purple and the Gold!
