His personal tweet thanked everyone for their prayers and support and said “see you all Saturday at Kroger Field.” Early on the radio they took that to mean he was gonna coach or that was the word.
Liam Coen with medical issue
- Thread starter Catfan in Tn.
- Start date
Is this speculation, or the root cause?
If implants and implants, alone, we can stop searching the news and combing the internet.
I feel as if you are just being flakey and brushing this off. I expected a “hair today, gone tomorrow” hominemal or some long tail about your farm and a pony. Before I get wigged-out, or someone calls me a piece, I am going to just part ways with this thread.
BTW, I suspect we learn more today. Defense switched with offense for the weekly presser yesterday. Liam may very well address the press today.
Doubt if it were a seizure the hospital would be so quick to determine he is fine and would be released in less than 24 hrs
Well it could be if he already knows he has some form of epilepsy. Some people with it get seizures extremely infrequently.
That's why my guess was anxiety with seizure as secondary. Typically if someone has a history of seizures, it's a known quantity and I don't think it would've shaken up the staff quite like it did.
Of course there is always the chance of it being a first occurrence but I think those chances are lower than that of an anxiety issue masking as a heart attack

Even if he didn’t they would get him stable and then schedule the other tests outpatient at a later date. A least That’s how they did me. I’m sure all people and types may be different but I was Determined not to be epilepsy, but I had to return to the hospital a week later for additional testing.
I have not heard that. With the University being so quiet about it, I question how you would know about this in the age of HIPPA. Generally, medical conditions are a private matter, off limits unless the patient chooses to discuss the information. But if it really was a seizure, the next question is whether he ever had a seizure before this one. If the answer to that is yes, he already has a known seizure disorder, then he needs an adjustment to his meds. But if the answer is no prior seizures, then they will rule out severe causes. Neurology consult and examination plus brain scan or MRI scan to rule out an intracranial mass. Draw blood to rule out a metabolic cause. Then he goes home with a med and an appointment to visit the neurologist in his office as an outpatient. Most seizure disorders are idiosyncratic and controllable with meds. The purpose of overnight observation and evaluation in a hospital would be to rule out a more serious problem. Anxiety is not a cause of seizures although there is such a thing as an anxiety reaction.
My guess was the same bc Matt Jones said something on Monday on KSR (I cant remember exactly what he said) that pointed to a seizure bc Matt has issues with seizures. Something along the lines of having had similar issues and it's scary. No inside knowledge at all, but what he said pointed to that.
Coen calling plays as normal Sat, per Stoops. Again, I seriously doubt it was something as serious as a 1st time seizure, he wouldn't be out of the hospital in less than a day, back to prepping & playcalling in 2 days.

Coen will coach Saturday vs. Akron, Stoops says
The UK offensive coordinator had an undisclosed health scare over the weekend.

I hope Coen takes it easy and decides to work out of the booth.
Coen looks great. Seems he works himself and works himself up too hard. Needs to be healthy and pace himself. Really good to see him back at the podium today.
Yes, definitely, it's a big relief to see him looking well at the podium. It's great that he is coaching again and will be calling plays on Saturday. No telling what happened on Sunday, and we don't need to know. It's his business.
Didn't we catch a break? Liam is here and thankful for all the care and concern. He's back at work being what he loves to be and doing it at a place his family loves. Thank you Lord for this could have been a very painful experience. May the peace of our Lord be upon each of us as we share our lives with the fun as neighbors of interest we have in this sports program at UK.
I was told this by someone else. I'm in the medical field as well. I'm not sure about his PMH.
Iirc in the press conference he said it was a little bit mental, lack of sleep and bad nutrition. Then talked about how he had to let go of little things etc.
All those times that stoops said coen was harder on himself than anyone else could be....it all seems to add up now.
My wife had a problem with low blood sugar and if her nutrition got out of whack she'd have problems, passing out did occur, seizures were possible. When I heard of Coen's episode low blood sugar was the first thing that came to mind.
He puts pressure on himself. Lack of hydration, sleep, proper nutrition? Hit the wall and your body will send you a message. Glad he seems well.
Yep. If you don't listen to your body it will eventually send a message you can't ignore
I have absolutely no idea, but does Liam drink alcohol ?? It can have serious effects, when conditions like lack of sleep, poor nutrition, dehydration, performance anxiety and low blood sugar are in play. In any event, he needs to listen to his body, as others have said here. He is a young man.

Definitely could. Given the totality of the circumstances, it sounded more like he was putting too much pressure on himself. But if he consumed alcohol it definitely contributes
I don't think the insinuation was something caused by alcohol or substance abuse issue. Just that alcohol can be a contributing factor in anxiety/mental health issues.
Yes, that was my intent. A few beers can make a difference in certain situations. I know from experience.
Everyone's heard useless rumors, but I was told he just lost consciousness. He even commented Wed that he didn't remember what happened, and how he has to take better care of himself, diet. So, that's why he was cleared to leave the hospital and back to work so quick
Here again, after dealing with this with my wife, the thing sounds like low blood sugar.
Low blood sugar does not cause people to pass out unless really, really low. That generally doesn't happen unless a patient has received an excessive dose of insulin. As far as we know, Liam Coen is not diabetic.
I have a co-worker who is type 1 diabetic. She became goofy and disoriented at work. I drew her blood and determined her serum glucose was 12 which is dangerously low. She was loopy for sure, but she was still conscious.
Lack of sleep and failure to consume necessary nutritional intake and hydration could make someone feel weak and dizzy, but they generally won't pass out unless something else is also going on with them at the same time.
Differential diagnosis for a healthy young person who passes out, in no particular rank order. Not suggesting what happened to Coen. We don't know for a fact that he actually lost consciousness.
Severe heart rhythm disturbance (think ventricular tachycardia, supraventricular tachycardia, long QT syndrome, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, or 3rd degree heart block) (Mother Teresa)
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Reggie Lewis)
Idiopathic cardiomyopathy (Hank Gathers)
Myocarditis (can sometimes be COVID-related) (Keyontae Johnson)
Pericarditis
Brugada syndrome
Ruptured aortic aneurysm (George C. Scott)
Ruptured intracranial aneurysm (Tom Sizemore)
Commotio cordis (Damar Hamlin)
Tunneled or absent coronary artery (Pete Maravich)
Pulmonary embolism (Prince Alexandre)
Vasovagal disturbance
Severe volume depletion (severe dehydration) with orthostasis
Intoxication (Len Bias, John Belushi, Michael Jackson)
Severe metabolic derangement
Grand mal seizure
