hmm.... judging by the late night scooter ride, and other odd behavior, and the general midwest locacation.... he's no stranger to the meth pipe..... probably a bad dose of cheap heroin or a blown out heart from too much meth will be the culprit....

very sad.....

[packerd_00]

Never heard of the guy,im not good with the Defensive backs unless they are big time like Sherman.

[Chi_archie]

Fishhead dated this guy for awhile when he was just a pup in high school

died a few months back

when will we see the next great white defensive back?

[jjgold]

This guy was a mess ever since he left Iowa. Sad to see. Too young.

Ex-Hawkeye. RIP. In Hawkey heaven with Reggie Roby, Nile Kinnick, Alex Karras, etc. (useless trivia, Fish from small town of Ex all pro tight end and Hawkeye..still alive)

[kyhawk]

Let's all celebrate his life with the great Iowa Victory Polka

Believe me, you have never drunk beer, like Fish and his HomeTown crew. I remember one time Fish and I went for dinner and ordered a pitcher of Bud. I started to pour my glass, when Fish yelled at me. "Get your own pitcher!" Every home game for the Hawkeyes during FB season we had a keg tapped at 10am before heading to Kinnick.

Iowa guys are heavy drinkers

No idea why even in Vegas bars loaded with Iowa caps

I believe he was gay but had not come out yet........

The autopsy determined the cause and manner of death was an "accidental mixed drug toxicity involving methadone and hydrocodone,"



Question....Isn't methadone used to treat an addiction problem to something such as hydrocodone? Why would he be mixing these drugs.....doesn't methadone counteract the effects of pain killers?

[Fishhead]

Sad

Hard to stomach what has happened to Iowas two starting safeties from the 2011 Orange bowl champion team.....

Sash, dead at 27

Methadone used to be used to help with opiate withdraws/addiction, but has mainly been replaced by Suboxone. Methadone still gives a high, but is much less physically euphoric then other opiates. It also last so fuking long and tolerance increases dramatically. Without much of a tolerance though, high doses of methadone are much more dangerous than other opiates. With its extremely long half-life it reduces and usually over power the other drugs effect, but does not necessarily stop them from working.

I think it was 2010 Iowa won orange bowl following 2009 season.

Boys put all your money on iowa to win it all. Last year ohio state did a satanic sacrifice with kosta karageorge and we see how that turned out.

[Jayvegas420]

Sharp angle as always Chico!

the Luckeyes sacrificed a current player


this does not fit, Sash left Iowa five years ago.

It's not unusual for an ex-player to die, what's unusual is a current player dying.


There's also the fact that Iowa was eliminated by losing to the Spartans...

I love the saltiest of you haters. The only thing lucky about last year was Oregon even scoring a TD in the final game, that was the luck.

Nickname dates to when the Luckeyes won the championship thanks to a horrible call against Miami. Nothing to do with Oregon.

oh from 2003, yeah that makes a lot of sense then.... let me just find my time machine, it's around here somewhere.

Time machine? Nicknames stick. For example, Florida State is still known as Free Shoes U even though Peter Warrick left FSU a long time ago.

[brooks85]
