BIGREDIOWAN Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Don't really know what to think of their reaction........................I think it probably scared them, but hope it's not something serious. Quote Link to comment
huskerscott Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It wasn't the flu. Channel 7 just said it was flu like symptoms. I believe that statement released said the same thing. Quote Link to comment
WAHusker Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 they dont check your pulse like that for just the Flu. I dont care what the "official" word is (which we all know is usually BS) My guess is just hypertension from stress. Much like Urban had a few years back. Its scary because it can mimic a heart attack. Quote Link to comment
krc1995 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 of all the games Bo has coached, this is not the one that I thought would send him to the hospital. Quote Link to comment

Klondike Cat Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 He had the flu.... The hospital trip was a precaution. This is ridiculous. They had to have at least thought at some point that it was more serious. Otherwise they don't take him out of there. True story -- one day I called into work with chest pains. You don't mess around with those. I was really worried. So I went into the doctor and they did an EKG and other tests. Turns out I had sore chest muscles. Never been so happy in my life to have sore chest muscles. So I call work back and explain what happened and say I can come in. Maybe it was something like that. Or maybe he was close to a heart attack, but didn't actually have one. I do wish they would just release the info and let all the fans know for sure, but if they don't there's nothing we can really do. Quote Link to comment
The Maudfather Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I seriously doubt that he left the game at half time over flu like symptoms. How many guys have we had over the years that suit up and play through "flu like symptoms"? Hell, how many of you have left your jobs via ambulance because you were feeling a bit under the weather? There is almost certainly something else to this. Question is, will we ever find out what it is? Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 seems like there might be something we don't know about... watch the vid with beck and pap http://sports.omaha....ess-conference/ Wow, if you watch the video, it's sounds bad. Best wishes to Bo and his family. If there is any question about his health, he should take off as much time as he likes. I don't care what it does to our record, something's are more important then Husker football -- and trust me, I don't say that lightly. It might just be that they don't know what the hell is going on with Bo at that point, and they're just worried about their friend. Hope it's nothing too serious. Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I'm taking the wait and see approach but at this point I dont believe it's a serious issue. Maybe it was flu like. As far as precautionary, the school has a huge investment in the guy so you can bet with a 28-3 lead theyre not taking any chances either. You just dont take chances with life. Quote Link to comment

I did one time have somebody drive me from work to the hospital for what I thought was the flu. Turns out I had food poisoning. Besides I doubt Bo was gonna drive himself, with an ambulance already on stadium grounds. Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 someone said they saw him at church? Is this true, or a smart ass? Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 This scenario actually happens more than most people think... You get the flu and start feeling a little under the weather, but don't think much of it. You've got sh#t to do. You pop a few pills and go on. This lasts for a couple days. What you don't notice with your busy schedule is that you're drinking less water, eating less food, etc. All of a sudden, the flu hits you like a truck. Now you've got a full blown nasty case of the flu, and you're dehydrated. A bad combination. This can do all sorts of weird things to your body, including symptoms that can pose as a more "serious" threat. Stuff like that happens a lot, and often ends in a visit to the hospital just to make sure you're not getting hit with something else. People usually regard the flu as nothing serious, and often that is the case for healthy individuals. But even if you're healthy and in good shape, if you get a bad strain (like the one that has been going around Lincoln lately), it will put you on your ass like nobody's business. And if you're dehydrated, over worked, etc on top of that - it can be a real issue. Is that what happened? Who knows. But it's entirely possible at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I had something nasty a week ago. Took 3 days to get over it, and I'm one of them never get sick types and can work through it fine if I do, but this knocked my on my ass. The headaches and nausia, dizziness, and the inability to take 3 steps without pissin battery acid out my rear was ridiculous. Quote Link to comment
Sam Spade Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It's serious, but not that serious. Simple lifestyle changes will be good enough. Just thank whatever it is you thank that our coach is ok and is home with his family. This will be a mute point. He's literally back to work tomorrow. He's dedicated, and we're horrible at showing him our appreciation. Quote Link to comment
KJ. Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It wasn't the flu. Channel 7 just said it was flu like symptoms. I believe that statement released said the same thing. Yeah, because there are no other conditions that share the same generic symptoms as the flu. 1 Quote Link to comment
