Rockne's Roundtable

Any idea on cause? So sad...so young.

borromini63,

It was from a brain aneurysm suffered the previous night. I added that to the main story.

It's very sad. I was here when he played for the Irish and he was always such a model representative of the school. When I gave him a call after his son committed, he was a married father of five and quite successful professionally, yet he still called me "Mr. Somogyi." Man, did that make me feel old.

As someone who lost my mom right when I got out of college, my heart bleeds for T.J. Thankfully, I'm sure he has a great support system in place. So sad. Prayers are with the Jones family.

Lou,

I watched him play during my college years as well and remember particularly watching him play on that NC team of '88 and subsequent seasons.

Thanks Lou.

yes way too young, god bless the family our prayers are with you.

Tragic loss and my thoughts and prayers go out to the Jones family.

Just devastating news. It is so unfair when something like this happen to great human beings and role models like Andre. Just reminds you every day how fragile life is. I hope Andre is welcomed into heaven with open arms and that his wife and five children find the courage to deal with this irreparable and crushing loss.

My thoughts and sympathies go out to the Jones Family on this very tragic day.
