"I’m doing fine and all the tests have come back good. The doctors have asked that I stay in the hospital for a few days, so I won’t be at MAC Media Day," McElwain informed CMU fans.

Obviously, this is a pretty scary situation for McElwain and his family. Seizures aren't something you want to mess around with.

Now, McElwain's medical dust up will stop him from being at his conference's media day Tuesday.

Hopefully, the former Florida head coach, who has a record of 20-13 at CMU and won a bowl game in 2021, is able to bounce back as quickly as possible.

As he said, the tests have returned with good news, and when you're in the hospital, that's all you can ask for.

Get well soon, Jim! Get back on the sidelines as quickly as you can!
