Yes, it was posted somewhere on Shockernet recently. I was very sorry to read about it... reminded of this great song.

I never did find an obituary. I know he's resting, waiting for that final recruitment call.

While tropicalshox will be well remembered and fondly thought of, I think the intent of Doc’s post was a cryptic hint of something on the horizon.

Well, this is sure to fire up wild speculation to unfathomable levels.

Thats true. Wessel does qualify for in state tuition.

Future on the bench – Smith is talking to coaches such as Marshall and former Wichita State assistants such as Dana Ford (now at Missouri State) and Earl Grant (College of Charleston) about a future in men's college coaching. Former Shocker John Cooper, an assistant at Oklahoma State, is also on his list of mentors.

This was taken from an article by Paul in February.

Ahhh, now I see...... I think. He's taking JR's coaching spot??????

[WuDrWu]

You guys need to get lives. I just tropicalshox and this popped up

[WstateU]

So are you saying he’s still wasting away in margaritaville?
I hope he is.
