No words for it. Just so sad.

Petrino speaks at the 4:00 mark. If you don't like the guy, or think he's heartless, watch this.

Any more details of this tragedy?

Unknown still. His body was sent for autopsy since his death was unattended, but I'm not sure when any news will be released.

Thanks for posting that, man.

And to anyone who can watch that video and say that Bobby Petrino is a piece of shite, or doesn't care about anyone...grow up. You can tell just how much he cares about his players.

Anyway, I was fine until Petrino started talking. frick this. Dammmmmmmitttttttttt.

So sad. Wow. I can't believe a healthy young man like that would have a heart attack. At 19? Might sound messed up, but I really hope that a heart attack wasn't it, a heart attack would be too unjust and cruel for a teenager.

This is a very tragic thing and it really puts things into perspective. I've been a fan of the game all of my life and I have 2 young kids, my son plays football. What a terrible thing his family and friends must be going through, I can't even imagine.

Uekman was found unresponsive in his dorm room at the Northwest Quad residence hall Sunday at approximately 11:17 a.m., according to a release through the UA. When paramedics arrived, the 19-year-old was in cardiac arrest. He was pronounced dead 50 minutes later at Washington Regional Medical Center in Fayetteville.

Uekman’s death has rocked the UA campus just days ahead of the football program’s biggest regular season game in more than four decades. The No. 3 Razorbacks will play at No. 1 LSU on Friday.

Choking back tears, Petrino said the team would play the game at the request of the Uekman family.

“To the outside world, we will take the field without number 88,” Petrino said. “They could not be more wrong. “Garrett will be there in the heart and soul of every Razorback that takes the field, sits in the stands or watches on TV. He is part of us and will be forever.”
