Wow.  This is terrible news.

 

Skip Prosser apparently had a heart attack this morning while jogging and died.  He was 56 years old.  By all accounts, he was an extremely likable and good man.

 

Sad, sad, sad.  I feel terrible for his family, his friends, his current and former players and all Wake Forest and college basketball fans.

 

I had even planned on writing a post this week about how Prosser had earned himself two more guaranteed years at Wake by signing two outstanding players a couple of weeks ago.  I hope their commitments made his final weeks happy.
