Such a shame

 

COLUMBIA, Missouri (Ticker) - Missouri redshirt freshman linebacker Aaron O'Neal died during a workout with teammates Tuesday. He was 19.

 

According to reports, O'Neal collapsed during voluntary workouts. He later died at University Hospital.

 

"Aaron was a quality young man who was well-liked and respected by his teammates and coaches," Missouri coach Gary Pinkel said. "We are all very shocked and hurt right now, but the most important thing we can do is focus on Aaron's family and to assist them in any way we can."

 

O'Neal was listed third on the Tigers' depth chart at middle linebacker.
