Get well soon Coach Kill!
Just another reason to keep him in the booth when he gets better enough to return

when it rains it pours. But the most important thing is his health. I hope he has a full recovery.
I was responding to you because you mentioned information on Jerry's health being available on the round table but wasn't actually aiming my response at you. I wasn't expecting you to be the person making that decision to release round-table information to the general public. Was intended for the mods or John.
Sorry for any confusion.
I understand. But, in my opinion, that sort of news should be disseminated widely once it's known. I love the moderating job everyone does on these boards and have a ton of respect for everyone involved from John on down. So this is a minor quibble (and my first ever on these boards, I think).
In any event, as you say, the news was going to be publicized shortly via local news anyway.
I'm just glad that it appears that Jerry will be okay. Which is the only thing that really matters here.
Wishing him the best and if He has to give it up for health reasons than I want to take this opportunity to thank him for giving us a shot. He could have treated us like many others have but he saw something here and in this staff worth coming back for. God bless him and hope and pray for nothing but good things to happen.
I hope kill gets well soon. But to say it's not related to coaching football is absurd. He was hurt while coaching a football game.
People are quickly insinuating that the issue was completely related to losing the game and not being able to handle the loss physiologically from the stress. It was more than that.
But what appears to be the case is the seizure was the result of what happened during a football game. So maybe not mentally losing a game , but yeah it's related to coaching football.
More related to standing on the sidelines of a football game than to coaching. I'm sure that they'll give much more thought to putting Kill in the box moving forward.
It was a blow to the head. I was actually held out of playing Pop Warner because my doctor thought a hit could cause a seizure. So if Kill was building homes and something fell from the rod and hit him, he could've had a seizure from that. Just because he was coaching does mean it was more likely to happen.
I'm not arguing about whether it happened at a football game. I'm arguing that it was dumb luck that he got ran into by an opposing player, not a symptom of handling stress.
From a visitor from the Penn State site -
Wishing Coach Kill a fast and healthy recovery!
Poor guy. i can certainly relate. I suffered a head injury during a high school game and was OK until about 6 months later when I started having seizures. They continued for the better part of 10 years because of the hit I received. Good luck and good health to him.
I don't get it, there has been a lot of incorrect speculation on what has happened.
Keeping this info on premium caused a lot of concern and false news. Would it have
made more sense to release this info rather than to keep it on premium?
