Why did Turner Gill retire? Hope it’s not health issues.
Gill’s wife is sick. She has a heart problem.
His wife supposedly has a heart condition and he is stepping down to focus on her health issues. Mine and my friends opinion is that he will likely come back to Nebraska in an administrative role with the football program or perhaps a fundraiser. His wife Gail (who I know from UNL). Is from Kearney. Turner Gill is a revered Husker legend and was Scott Frost’s position coach when he played. Frost has already brought back Ron Brown (another former coach from his playing days) so bringing back Turner Gill would not be a surprise. He likes to have guys around who were here when things were rolling and who know the “Husker Way”.
