Thank you for posting this. I am happy to see that they are almost half way to what they need to raise.

Hopefully a few more board members will pitch in. I see that some of his SU teammates donated.
For these types of things, I tend to be one of the Anonymous ones.

Chilling, absolutely gripping tale told with great skill by Nate Mink.

I don't know if you read this message board Nate, but, by chance you do, this was fantastic. Your words will be what immortalizes Luke's story, well done.

Jim Jerome and others tried very hard.

The Football Club solicited and received financial assistance and emotional support.

Glad the SU Football Club tried. Jim Jerome is a good guy, as are the others in that fine organization.

Has it been confirmed that his mental problems were related to playing football? I have a bad feeling it played a role in this...

I don't know how that could be ascertained, given what was described in the article about his father's decision to not have Cain's brain researched.

And not to discount that possibility, but one thing that shone through loud and clear from that article was the depths of his drug-related problems, and how his proclivities may have directly led to brain damage, schizophrenic behavior, etc. In the main, the way I interpreted that article was that the PCP issue was what caused the majority of his mental problems.

That was my impression also that the drug abuse may have played more of a part, but I guess we will never know.
