Hopefully, the young man will show up safe and get needed help.

Saw video of each player being announced .. When they said his name, the crowd went silent.

Such a shame. Would've been his last game as a senior- a biggie versus Blue.

I hope that he is found safe and sound and that he gets any help he needs ..

Heard about this yesterday, what an odd story. Have they checked the tattoo parlors around Columbus?

This isn't gonna come out right...lots of kids go missing that never get any "press", kinda pisses me off that he's getting press and young women don't get any...

I understand perfectly what you mean, and you're exactly right. All missing cases are equally important.

unfortunately i think you're right. he left wearing all black and without his wallet and didn't take is motorcycle. he could be anywhere. and with no ID it may be a while before he is found. i just hope it's in a good way and not the other.

His body was found near campus. He apparently died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

I had read that he suffered numerous concussions and bouts of confusion.

The day he disappeared, he texted his mom to apologize for being a "disappointment".

So sad. Rest in peace.

Very sad to see something like this happen. Wish someone had been a little faster to react to his messages and his friends had stopped him. Sad day, wish his family the best and may his soul rest in peace now.

What a terrible decision he made...I just don't understand why folks choose this path. I hope his family finds peace.

Since he's only played football since August at Ohio State, is it safe to assume he got his concussions while wrestling?

 

[alabama mike]

Hate to hear about anyone taking their life but especially a young person.

 

[Bamabww]

Terrible thing to happen. Prayers for the family.

 

[sean]

thoughts out to his family and friends.

Praying for his momma and family members during the toughest time they'll ever face.

I heard an ESPN radio report yesterday that said his body was found in a dumpster. Does that seem odd to you?

There's no doubt he hasn't been thinking clearly. But it still seems odd to me for someone to climb in a dumpster only to shoot themselves.

Yup, very odd. I thought the same thing when I read the reports yesterday. Who climbs into a dumpster to kill themselves...
