Well the article mentioned that the ruptured vessel was the cause of the stroke, but that the symptoms have disappeared. I'm sure more time is and tests are needed.

Seattle Seahawks: As a student at tiny Juniata College in Pennsylvania during the early 1950s, Chuck Knox fell in love with history -- almost giving up coaching to become a professor.

After he logged 22 years as an NFL head coach, hindsight proves Knox made a solid decision. But his passion for learning and a connection with his alma mater always remained.

Knox recently donated $1 million to establish the Dr. Charles R. and Shirley A. Knox Chair in History at Juniata, a 1,400-student liberal arts school in Huntington, Pa., tucked into the Appalachians 120 miles east of Pittsburgh.

Knox has long been a supporter of Juniata. He gave $50,000 toward a sports and recreation center and was chairman of a $1 million campaign to improve athletic facilities. He also served on the college's board of trustees from 1978-99.

The 3,000-seat football stadium, built in 1988, is named after Knox.

Knox led three NFL teams to division titles. He became head coach of the Los Angeles Rams in 1973 and won five straight NFC West titles, never winning fewer than 10 games. Knox moved to Buffalo in 1978 and produced a division title in 1980.

His longest stint came in Seattle from 1983-91. Knox took the Seahawks to their first playoff berth in franchise history in 1983, falling one game short of the Super Bowl.

The next year, Seattle won its first division title, and Knox led the Seahawks to the playoffs in 1987 and 1988. He finished his career with the Rams in 1994.
