Terrible news. One of the really great coaches out there and did amazing work at Kennesaw and USF.

I am stunned by this one. Wonder if it was an early onset condition or surgery gone wrong. Incredibly young for this to happen.

Never wanna fully assume

But the tweet of aggressive illness leads me to believe it wasn't a surgery and more an early condition that clear came on fast and hard

Brutal.

School confirmed it was a complication from a medical procedure.

FIFY

Nonetheless, very sad and scary.

Well, crap. That's why I said never assume.

What a terrible situation for that program

A poster on the USF board believes he had a stroke a few days ago and the procedure was to remove the clot.  Obviously not the greatest source so take it for what it's worth.
