Damn. That's cruel.

RIP young man.

Terrible news. Condolences to his family, friends, & teammates.

Wow… awful news. Hate to see folks die so young

I’d draft him with the Mr irrelevant pick just to make his wish come true.

 

[Creeper]

This is horrible news. No one that young should die. It is sad. But I wonder how a college athlete dies of a heart attack? How did doctors miss it? What they can do to detect heart defects today is miraculous. Maybe all athletes need to be tested to make sure they are fit to do what they need to do to engage in sports.

I swear I read some of the bigger schools were starting to do thorough heart work ups to guys but I could be wrong.

Terrible how so many were deceived

What’s sad that his family had to come out and state he wasn’t “deceived”. They can’t even mourn without the topic getting brought up…
