Two of University of Minnesota Gophers head football coach Jerry Kill's assisitants tell the Star Tribune that Kill will not resign.

On Saturday, Kill had another epileptic seizure at the end of the first half of the game against Western Illinois.

He was taken to the hospital and did not coach the second half.

This is the third time in three years that Kill has been unable to finish coaching a game because of a seizure.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Howard Sinker, a digital sports editor for the Star Tribune, about any fallout from the latest incident.
