Vicki Kopplin had a impassioned phone conversation with retired Gophers football coach Jerry Kill late Tuesday night.
“He’s as fiery as ever,” said Kopplin, executive director of the Epilepsy Foundation of Minnesota.
Jerry, who stepped down as coach Oct. 28 for health reasons tied to his epilepsy, will be at Saturday’s game between Minnesota and Wisconsin at TCF Bank Stadium. The Battle for Paul Bunyan’s Axe is also the Epilepsy Awareness Game, now in its fourth season.
