BOWLING GREEN — One moment, Scot Loeffler was lost in his football bubble, celebrating a big win but already looking ahead to the week of dawn-to-dark, head-down preparation that awaited.
The next ...
The real world interrupted.
About 4 a.m. last Sunday, shortly after Bowling Green State University’s home upset of Marshall, the Falcons coach was rattled from his sleep, throwing up blood. Loeffler, 47, thought it might be acid reflux, but his condition worsened.
“Sunday night, I tried to go to bed, but I ended up sleeping in my office chair because I couldn’t lay down,” Loeffler said.
