Former head football coach Jerry Kill will not be offered a full-time position at the University of Minnesota.

In a statement, U President Eric Kaler said he and Kill had several conversations about the former Gopher football coach taking a potential role with the U.

Kaler said they could not identify a full-time opportunity that met the needs of both Kill and the U.

A U of M spokesman said as recently as Monday, Kill and Kaler were discussing several roles that included fundraising and teaching.

Kaler said the athletic department and others are already identifying and discussing opportunities with Kill.

Citing health reasons, Kill retired in October. He has epilepsy and seizures returned during the football season.
