News bulletin
Bo Schembechler rushed to hospital

November 17, 2006

By KORIE WILKINS

FREE PRESS STAFF
Former University of Michigan football coach Bo Schembechler was transported to Providence Hospital after a medical emergency Friday morning, a Southfield Police Department official has said.

Detective John Harris said Southfield officers escorted an ambulance carrying Schembechler to Providence Hospital at about 9:30 a.m. Medical personnel were called to WXYZ-TV in Southfield after Schembechler apparently suffered a medical problem.

Last month, the 77-year-old Schembechler had a pacemaker and defibrillator installed after he had dizziness and other symptoms while taping his weekly television show.

Officials at the television station, the hospital and the University of Michigan could not be reached for comment Friday morning.

I meant Bo's Family, but I'm guessing Bo didn't feel much. Woody just wanted to sit at the couch in heaven (?) and have Bo join him. Must have called in a favor.
