I remember his case from 2007 when he robbed a student. Bizarre situation.

Very sad. On all accounts, it appeared he had turned his life around. That life has been cut short.

I don't remember him.  A massive heart attack at age 25.  That will get your attention.

Heart problems seem to be a genetic thing with the black race, especially in basketball. It's sad to die so young.

If I remember correctly, he was a DL, like 6'5" 300#. I remember thinking, how dumb can you be? How many 6'5" 300 lb black guys are running around on campus? The cops had him in no time. I think they went straight to the athletic dept and looked at pictures to ID him.
