Dickey in hospital

North Texas football coach Darrell Dickey was expected to be held overnight for observation at Presbyterian Hospital of Denton after becoming ill Sunday afternoon.

Dickey hosted recruits Sunday morning but wasn't feeling well after prospective players left Denton. UNT athletic director Rick Villarreal said Dickey, 46, went to the hospital for precautionary tests upon the suggestion of his doctors.

"At this time, he's in really good condition," said Villarreal, who spoke with Dickey late Sunday. "He sounds like he's doing fine. What we know early is it's nothing major."

Please keep him in your prayers.

heard this on the way into work this morning on ESPN radio. Totally forgot about it until you posted it. Hope it is nothing serious.

Me too. I hope this isn't the result of our recruitment of Carson Coffman.

Seriously, glad to hear all is well with DD and that the Buick just needed a tune-up.

It's ok people I'm sure.

See what happened was that he had Flannigan over for dinner and while he was making salad he felt like he was a having a heart attack.

It was actually just indigestion, so hope you get to feeling better Dickey!

I hope you're doing great also DD! No joke intended I assure you, but maybe it's time to go with more salads on a regular basis. All of us that have hit the big four O know that it's a good time to get rid of the old gut. One of my best buddies (at 41) just had a major heart situation. Best of luck, we need ya, and ya very well could be our MVP this coming year! Hope to see you on Wednesday!
