Former Alabama coach Gene Stallings suffers heart attack

DALLAS, Texas (WDEF) – Coaching friend Pat Dye says Gene Stallings should recover from a heart attack he suffered over the weekend in Dallas.

The former Alabama coach was placed on a ventilator after developing a clot.

Stallings has already suffered two minor strokes earlier this year.

But both Dye and Personal assistant Lynn Huggins say the doctor expects him to make a full recovery.

Stallings is 82 years old.

He coached the Crimson Tide from 1990-96, winning a national championship in 1992.
