It appears he committed suicide. Sad news. That guy was a load in the post back when he was at UK.

Dinner Bell Mel. I remember him more from the NBA but it is sad to see anyone go out like that.

Hate to think some of that got to him.

we'd played one of our better games of the year (83?) and lost to those csuckers in OT after throwing them our inbounds pass to tie in regulation. Kalpatrick Wells did a great job on Turpin that night as best I recall.
