I was a student then - was a bad time.
I brought all this up because it seems like State has been unusually hit hard by sudden deaths in its football program.
AU had Gregg Pratt die of heat stroke during practice back in 1983, and then had a couple of players killed in a shooting incident at a party in 2012, but those are the only similar incidents I can recall. To have lost four active players - three of which were starters - die suddenly while still participating is heartbreaking.

Those were both recently former players that were no longer on the roster. Jakell Mitchell in 2014 was a freshman still on the team though who probably had playing time in his future
