Skip Prosser Dead at 56

Absolutely shocking news from Wake Forest, as their men's basketball head coach has died of a heart attack in his mid 50s. Despite having two down years in a row, Skip Prosser had done really good things at Wake. Two years ago, his team was led by Chris Paul. Had that team played any bit of defense, Skip Prosser might be a national championship head coach. But that's all just the game of basketball. I definitely feel for the Wake Forest community and wish his family and players the best getting through this tough time. For the second time in two years, the college basketball world has experienced a terrible loss. Last year, Pittsburgh coach Jamie Dixon's sister Maggie, who coached Army, died of a heart problem as well.
