RIP for Randy.

Coachs run a high risk for heart attacks.

How awful. This Buckeye's heart goes out to his family and all the Northwestern fans.

I hope the coach didn't forget the first rule of sports, its only a game, not life and death. Now acceptance or rejection of Christ, that's life or death.

Since my heart attack (also at age 52), I came to realize that no man ever looked up at his family from his deathbed and said, " Damn, I wish I'd spent more time at the office."

52 is way too young.

So young. It's a real shame - he was an outstanding coach as well.

"I came to realize that no man ever looked up at his family from his deathbed and said, " Damn, I wish I'd spent more time at the office."

or, I wish I wouldn't have wasted money on those monthly Life Insurance premiums.
