suh_fan93 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Milt Tenopir guided powerful Nebraska offensive lines that were known for toughness, among other qualities. The 74-year-old retired assistant coach has been showing some toughness of his own. Tenopir was diagnosed with leukemia May 21 and has completed his first round of chemotherapy, he said Thursday from his home. http://m.journalstar.com/sports/huskers/football/ex-husker-assistant-tenopir-fighting-leukemia/article_c50d5233-f9d1-5160-bb6e-0659a97003e7.html?mobile_touch=true Very sad. I love Milt. Quote Link to comment

HuskerNationNick Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Story from someone who knew Milt. I guess he still isn't doing well, which is expected. My prayers out to him and his family. One of the best assistants to ever coach for NU! http://journalstar.com/sports/huskers/life-in-the-red/an-act-of-kindness-never-forgotten/article_a89300e4-008f-11e4-b8d3-0019bb2963f4.html#.U7HHwAYBy4g.twitter 1 Quote Link to comment

HuskerNationNick Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Milt is a legend. I hope he beats this. Me too, but at his age, the odds definitely aren't in his favor. The guy is a fighter though, and wouldn't surprise me at all if he does defeat it! GO MILT!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
