Shocking news RIP

Breh was the star recruit in the state the first year I started following recruiting. I’d read his ridiculous stats every week and try to catch maybe 15-20 seconds of his highlights on Fox Sports weekly show. Finally saw him play on tv in the title game when he shytted on westlake. Ran over and thru Huston Street multiple times.

Seems so long ago and just like yesterday all at the same time

Dont get on a moped either.

folks may laugh but i remember i went to cuba and rented a scooter thinking this ish would be easy. I was never so shook in my life being on teh road looking back and cars would be coming so fast at me. I literally got off and walked it back to the hotel

So a van was pulling out? I guess they didn't see him? There was one other person killed. Wonder if he was with someone or it was the person in the van.

Yep. I remember watching that game too. Was a monster at Midland Lee. Truly sad. RIP to a Texas (not just the school) football legend.

I ride this is the one thing that makes me think about quiting. Peole are too damned inattentive and on a bike you get in a wreck with a car you're losing big time. I hope he was geared up, he probably wasn't.

Those of you who do ride, wear all your gear and you vastly reduce the level of injury
