Don't know.
Lots of twitter chatter saying that there's confirmation out there that he died.
Edited out the rumor that I'd read. No point in perpetuating it if it isn't true.

It's always a shock to see a youngster die.
I hope no OU Insider tweets about an opportunity for an incoming fish to start a la that Bama clown.
Signatures are stupid. You should block them.

True, I didn't mean to capitalize Insider and confuse that.
