Jon Sousa No. 2 Share Posted June 19, 2023 This is very sad. I hope it doesn't affect his ability to coach in any way. We want a strong PAC. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Joseph Moderator No. 5 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Sanders is having blood clot surgery and is not expected to have any body parts removed.

One part of the treatment requires rest and staying away from stressful situations. Not ideal for a college football coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
