Driving an 18 wheeler. If true my sympathy goes out to the family.

Someone says it was reported onTiger Bait.

Man that is tragic, my best to him and his family. Hang in there kid.

That's sad news. I hope the family can lean on each other during such hard times.

if anybody knows the family, let them know that my and the rest of the forum's users are praying for him and his family...sad to hear man...damn i hope it's not true

i heard the news on the radio yesterday, nobody deserves such tradgedy. Thoughts and prayers to him and his family.

Our prayers are with you, RP! Hang in there, buddy.

Spoke to him today:

Obviously he was very down, b/c his brother was like a father to him:

They were best friends, and he was a huge reason that he chose LSU over Texas and Miss St.

At the same time, he said that he will see his brother as a spiritual motivation to get him to the NFL

I thought those words were really big, because the true champions are the people who can make the most out of a bad situation

cgisclair, thanks. I thought it was the younger of the 2 older brothers that was the major influence in his life.

yes, it is his other brother that is acting as a type of agent or spokesman, but because of his brothers tight-knit job, had he gone anywhere but LSU, he would not have been able to see him play very often:


So that is one of the 'family' issues that made him choose LSU

but correct you are, his youger older brother (oxy-moron lol) is the one who got the media attention during the recruiting

Prayers to RP
