I read a very sad story about Scot's health the other day. His wife says he
has Alzheimer's at age 60 and is in a pretty bad way. Additionally he's had
a couple of strokes and heart problems. His claim for compensation has been
turned down by the NFL.
I had to refresh my memory about his time at UF when he was knocked
unconscious in the 1st game of 1979 and never played another game for UF .
He was advised to give up football but found a doctor that cleared him and
of course went on to play several years in the NFL.
Here's a link to the story
