So This Guy Passed Away And Was Big In My Hometown

[BeenHereBefore 1,667]

He was the my hometown High School QB back in the early 90's and was decent and also a good basket ball player and they won a state title. Anyone here remember him playing at SC ?

Na he was a Hometown Hero and wasn't bad at the Gamecocks QB! His dad was pretty awesome at coaching Women's Basket Ball and won a  National championship or two here. I did actually know his dad. That said sorry to hear this!

I had a friend that knew about him a lot and he told me while we was drinking coffee at Eat N Park that Steve was under age drinking and ran his car into a house. How big he was around here cops told him you wasn't here and now get out of here. Crazy but still sorry to hear his passing.
