Tyler Sash Has Died

[hockalot]

Horrible news. Puts a big damper on the game this week.

God bless his memory. The players will be playing like insane men this Saturday. Clowns will be destroyed.

Great play, great season, great player.

Yes, yes, and yes.
Didn't Norm call Tyler "Mr. Opportunity" that year? Specifically after that game?

RIP 9. What a great football player and Hawkeye. You will be missed. God Speed.

Thanks imported ankle. I even had forgotten how great that play was!

Thanks imported ankle. I even had forgotten how great that play was!

Will never forget that play, along with his INT-pass-back to Hyde for a "combined-pick-six". Tyler Sash with arguably the two coolest INT plays in the KF Era.

I am a cyclone fan...and I've honestly only come to this board to lurk through threads. This is my first post to this board...and I honestly don't know if I will ever post again. Regardless, this is a terribly sad situation. I find myself fascinated by how someone so talented and loved and full of life and vigor could just be here one day and gone the next, it's nearly impossible for me to reconcile. I truly hope his family (personal, hawkeye, Iowan) can find peace in the memories they cherish with Tyler.

Over on Cyclonefanatic, someone just posted this blog from Jeff Woody. Although it lends itself to some speculation I feel the emotional context is worth it. http://jwoody32.blogspot.com/jwoody32.blogspot.com/http://jwoody32.blogspot.com/

I will be at the game this weekend and I hope that for some of you it can be a good time to start healing. I can't wait for a great game with no injuries. I will be sure to share some beers with my Hawkeye brethren on Saturday, because if its one thing this incident should teach us is that life is much more important than a damn football game.

Good luck to all of you and godspeed! Hope to see you Saturday.

No it just appears that way. Click on the link and then click on "Tyler Sash; Son, Hawkeye, Athlete on the left. The article should then show up.

 

[74Hunter]

While I am familiar with his name I don't know much about him as a player or person, but obviously he is highly admired and loved and will be greatly missed.

Thoughts and prayers.

I still hate reading the title of this thread.

There is a link on the Drudge Report, "NFL Super Bowl Champion Dead at 27...", that links to a fox news article at http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2015/09/09/former-nfl-player-tyler-sash-dead-at-27

Paki and Antrel Rolle are both quoted in the Fox piece.

Yep. Its just unbelievable

 

[BleednGumsMrphy]

It's one of those things that when I first heard it yesterday I couldn't believe it but now that a day has gone by it is really setting in. I did not not know Tyler Sash but this news still has a profound effect on myself and many people I know. It just shows what a person he was that his passing makes such an impact on so many people. Here's to you Mr. Sash

Interesting to note that Tyler's mantra of, "get better, not bitter", is actually in urbandictionary.com ... posted in 2011 after he joined the NY Giants. Four words to live by.
