Charlie hospitalized

Posted: 2/24/2012 9:15:05 AM

Bobcat fans should join the Redskin and Redhawk faithful and keep Charlie in our prayers as he continues to battle his serious health issues. He was hospitalized last night by his heart specialist, and sources close to the situation tell me he may have coached his last game. You can bet that Charlie will fight to reagain his health, just like his teams have fought for each possession!

It sounds like it's a virus and not his heart which is probably good news. I hope he can make it back and coach at least the last game of the season so he can get the send off he deserves. I know Miami fans are ready for him to go but I would love to see him coach one more year and announce before the season that it is his last so he can have a farewell tour. No one in the MAC has earned it more IMO.

Sorry to hear about Charlie's hospitalization. He was not feeling well during Miami's televised win over Kent State on Tuesday.

Very sorry to hear this, hope Charlie will be okay.

I didn't think he looked well during their game on Tuesday night.

Should we start another get well card campaign?

PS. Nice email response from Jermaine after sending him an email to him about Charlie (thanks for the email potstirred). This really is a class rivalry between two great institutions with great people.

Hey attackers,
Please take a couple of minutes and let them know how we feel about Coach Coles. Here is the response I received from Coach Henderson
Thank you much for reaching out! Certainly means a great deal coming from Athens!! Haha only teasing. We have a great deal of respect for the Bobcats and we appreciate the rivalry; and no one knows about it more than Coach Coles. I will pass on your prayers and I hope OU finishes strong...well until next Friday!! Lol

Again thanks for showing a great deal of class and respect for Coach Coles and our program. We appreciate it

Thanks,

Jermaine

Watched only a few minutes of the game but I did notice Henderson, of Columbus East HS, doing most of the coaching, walking the sidelines, etc. . . during the game with Charlie remaining in his chair.

It would be nice to see Charlie go out with a final tour. I was impressed with what Ohio did for the Ball State broadcaster this year. I also was able to see part of Otterbein coach Dick Reynolds going away tour this year . It was great too see him recognized for his achievements by every one. It would be nice if Miami does something for Charlie like Otterbein did in naming the floor after him.

My guess is that if he's well enough, Charlie will be watching this game tonight. That cheer should would be a great one for him to see and hear on tv.

That was a nice tribute from Ohio noting 50 plus years of broadcasting in the MAC. Why would Miami put the name of one of the most polarizing figures in their history on their court before they would even honor Coach Hedric who was arguably one of the best they ever had ? He beat Dean Smith and Bobby Knight with his Miami teams on the road. Charlie is great but he pales in comparison when looking at Coach Hedric who was also a player alum. Is anyone here who knows Coach Hedric's record against the Bobcats? I suspect it was pretty good.

I would hardly say he pales in comparison. Charlie had a better conference record, same number of MAC titles, same number of NCAA appearances, more NCAA tournament victories. Hedric was over .500 in 7 of his 14 seasons at Miami. Coles was over .500 in 10 of his 16. I would also say calling Coles one of the most polarizing figures in their history considerable hyperbole. If the internet had been around in the 70s we might have gotten to hear the Redskin fans whine and complain about Hedric as well. I agree that it would be hard to name the court after Charlie because of Hedric but they are both sitting at the same table at the banquet.

Good news. According to the Enquirer Charlie is back behind the bench tonight.
