I was watching he Minnesota v New Mexico State game, and Jerry Kill appeared to have a seizure on the sideline.

Prays go out to Jerry and his family. I certainly hope he is OK :'(

Last report I heard said he was stable. I guess he has had a history of seizures - maybe he should take up a less stressful job?

It may or may not be triggered by stress. It may be well managed by medicine. Depending on what type of seizure it is, it may not be damaging at all to the man.

For many, it's a disability they live with that is no different than missing an arm or a leg or being blind. There's no way he stop doing the thing he loves just because it might make folks uncomfortable, unless of course it presents an actual health risk to him, which only he and his doctors will ever know.

Agreed, as long as it is not a life threatening condition, he should continue to do what he loves. It was pretty disturbing to watch though, and certainly put a damper on the game.
 
If my experience at their games is any indication, thats one of the most stressful jobs you can find. Wouldnt doubt blood pressure for college football coaches is much higher than the national average.
