RIP. Incredibly sad and his brother asked for prayers tonight on social media so I'll absolutely be doing that.

This board may not be the best place for this, but for those that are ever feeling that way, please reach out. There are always people who care. I don't care if that person is me, some random arse dude you've never met outside of posts on a message board.


Quail Man posted this on pg 2, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to have it in the OP.

The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline's number is 1-800-273-8255

Please, if you ever need help, call them. It's not weak. It's not unmanly. It's nothing but brave to seek help when you're going through a tough time. You're never alone. Please talk to someone.

Awful. Prayers for his family.

I was watching earlier when he got thrown into their game against Boise after Falk got hurt and led an incredible comeback win in 3OT. He was on fire

RIP

Hard to fathom a 21 year old kid with a whole life ahead of him leaving the world behind. Terribly sad.

Awful. Prayers for his family because they are going to be going through hell asking "why?" for a long time and I can't imagine the constant torment of that. Maybe he had CTE?

Does anyone have a clue why he might've done this?

Man. That is terrible. Prayers sent. Hope his family and friends can find peace in this tragedy.

I hate it especially for the Wazzu football team and coaching staff. Those guys are undoubtedly around him all the time. They may go around kicking themselves for a while wondering if they missed some signs

Suicide rates are increasing with social media and technology improvements. People are growing farther apart and living in fairy tale worlds. I myself have these issues and it sucks. Suicide prevention is one of the biggest charities I work with because this is a true epidemic.

That’s so unbelievably sad. I’m heartbroken for his loved ones, family, friends, teammates. Way too young
