So sad.

Quote:Agu collapsed during a team run, according to the Mercury News. Former NFL player Greg Kragen, whose son, Kyle Kragen, is a defensive end at Cal, told the Mercury News that his son told him that Agu passed out during the run.

My guess is this was heart related. I think it'd be wise if the NCAA made it mandatory, that all players go through heart screening.

Thing is even that doesn't show everything.

One of my good friend's dad had just had a nuclear stress test and got a clean bill of health yet died of a heart attack less than two weeks later.

As cold as it sounds sometimes it's just your time to go.
