Sam Pittman opened up his presser yesterday esentailly praying for him. He seemed down/dark about his situation. Hopefully Greg is on the mend and will live a normal life/playing again. Pittman spoke to how good of a kid he was in Fayetteville.

I think the standing response to these inquiries is "Thanks for your concern, but this is a personal, family matter."
They'll let us know when and if they are ready.

I'll also say that the medical emergency may not even be Greg himself. It could be a family member that required him to be home.

Brian Kelly confirmed in his presser yesterday, that the situation is dealing with Brooks, not a family member.

According to Kelly, it is Greg himself with the medical emergency. Not a family member.

I heard it. Saying that Brooks is dealing with a medical emergency still does not imply that it is he himself that has the issue. It probably is him, but until someone says Brooks has this or that ailment it's not necessarily the case.

The reporter asked if the situation was with Brooks or a family member and Kelly said Brooks.

We’re not all always dicks here all the time.

The context for the snarky responses is this:
Someone on this board posted a rumor about his condition, obviously without consent & in violation of HIPPA.

No official details have come out, but it seems like a pretty serious situation.

Gotcha, I literally had no clue until Pitt opened up his presser and it seemed dire. I didnt' realize it had already been posted.

Everything I said is just a regurgitation of the earlier threads, and could prove to be 100% false about Greg Brooks's situation. But, I just find it silly to act like we are above rumors on a message board.

Unless it was a medical professional that deals with Brooks, it's not a HIPPA violation.

Also to say we just care about the guy and hoping he is okay. Just a shock and people not sure how to address.

Kelly was asked if it was Greg who was dealing with the emergency or a family member, and Kelly responded by saying, "Greg is dealing with the medical emergency." If you want to say thats not confirming its Greg because he did not say what he is dealing with then be stubborn. But to the rest of America that was Kelly saying it is Greg who is having the medical emergency not a family member.
