According to a BYU release, coach Dave Rose had his spleen removed last weekend after experiencing some internal bleeding while at a family reunion in Las Vegas. He is expected to fully recover after several weeks. Rose’s coaching staff will run the team while the head coach recuperates.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rose family at this time,” said Tom Holmoe, BYU Director of Athletics. “We would ask that his privacy be respected as he recuperates from surgery.”
