Central Michigan’s Jim McElwain Hospitalized After Seizure

Central Michigan football coach Jim McElwain has been hospitalized after suffering a seizure.

The coach revealed the situation in a Twitter post Monday, saying doctors have asked him to remain in the hospital for a few days. McElwain, 60, suffered the seizure Sunday, and will miss the Mid-American Conference media day proceedings Tuesday in Cleveland.

“I’m doing fine and all the tests have come back good,” McElwain posted.

McElwain is 20–13 in four seasons at CMU. The Chippewas went 9–4 last season and capped the year with a Sun Bowl victory over Washington State.
