Bad news, hate to see this stuff.
Body of Purdue running back recovered | WLFI - Lake Freeman

I think he was pretty deep in the charts, but I think their #1 just had acl surgery as well.

That's terrible. Thoughts and prayers out to this young mans family and the whole purdue fan base.

One of my childhood friends drowned afterdrinking and then swimming. Not a good combination.

In light of the seriousness of the tragedy, I find your thread title beyond bizarre (if not offensive).

Well lets see, I posted it in a B10 sports forum. I said it was bad news and I did'nt like that kind of news. If you are offended, I am sorry. Did you know the kid? If we were in a political forum and I told you a guy running for mayor and his wife drowned in Colorado, and the race for mayor took a turn, would you be offended?

Or if Jason White were suddenly killed & someone started a thread titled...'Hawkeye RB Depth Chart gets shuffled'...

I agree with sergeant. What does this story have anything to do with Purdue's running game? The kid has never recorded a statistic in a game.

We should be worried about this young man's safety and the well-being of him and his family.

Was anyone else surprised when they saw his picture?

 

[olddude]

Wow, either I have lost to much in my life or you guys havent lost enough. We are not going to agree on this, so AGAIN, I AM SORRY IF IT OFFENDS ANYONE.

Come on guys... give Olddude a break. Maybe the title should have been worded differently, but he obviously didn't mean any offense to anyone and thought it was terrible news.

My thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.

Agreed ATL, Olddude didn't mean this maliciously but I would change the Title to say maybe.

Tragic accident results in Purdue RB's Death or Purdue RB in swimming accident passes away. Something like that maybe?

I too will keep these folks in my thoughts.
