I met him after a game in '02. Seemed like a really great guy.

that sucks ... so sudden

Its not like he was a fatty either. Looked to be in decent health. Scary to think about when you look at the age of your own parents.

Damn that is terrible. 52 is young for a heart attack.

He was a good coach I thought.

^^it said he had somethin wrong with his heart muscles

this press conference with the players is pretty sad to watch

he had myocarditis.

Damn, hadn't heard that. Well, that is still a relatively easy to get disease. I know one of the vet school students nearly died from it... think it was from a dental procedure if I remember correctly.

That sucks - I really liked how some of the offensive schemes he put together at Northwestern.
