Penn St. kicker: 'Would cry' after eating binges

Penn State Nittany Lions kicker Joey Julius, in his first TV interview since going public with an eating disorder, said Friday that he "might not be here right now" had he not gotten treatment.

Julius -- who handles kickoffs for the Nittany Lions and whose two big tackles have gone viral this season -- opened up about his binge eating disorder in a public Facebook post on Oct. 3. He entered treatment at a St. Louis center from May 9 to July 26 and missed spring and summer workouts with the football team.
