Our football program is devastated by the tragic loss of life that occurred in Minneapolis earlier this week. It’s difficult to explain to my children how this can happen in our country in 2020. Everyone in the United States deserves the right to feel protected and safe.

The life and legacy of Brian Piccolo continues to impact us and inspire us today. #DeaconLegend #GoDeacs.
Fifty years ago today, Gale Sayers took a stage at the Americana hotel and told a story that changed so much about the way we look at American sports. He asked us to love Brian Piccolo. It is a love story that lasts to this day.
