I haven't heard anything about him being in poor health and no cause of death. Any idea what happened?

I haven't heard cause at all. He was such a pro, though and seemingly a good guy.

Speculation of suicide. This guy is gone and Bill Maher still lives...life isn't fair.

Speculation of heart failure and suicide on reddit. The suicide speculation comes from his book where he talks about fighting depression. This guy is gone and Bill Maher still lives...life isn't fair.

Suicide was my first guess. But I don't really know anything about him

It doesn't matter but I sure hope it wasn't suicide/depression.

I agreed. Just hope it wasn't that.


Easy choice for the best on ESPN. Just a pure, professional.

According to family release he hadn't been feeling well for a couple of days and was unresponsive this morning.
