Very sad when anyone his age has to deal with serious health problems. He may be part of the competition on the football field, but I pray that he has a speedy and full recovery.

He's a hell of a prospect as a professional player, and I bet some team still will draft him.

Whether he plays football again or not is irrelevant. Get better and live a long, healthy life. Got my fingers crossed for you.

Second that. Never want to hear this about anyone that young.

Amen to all of what you guys have said. Hope he gets well very soon.

Its a shame because he was forecast to be a late 2nd round pick by the Drugstore List and a 3rd round pick by the Sporting News. However, my niece had this cancer and has fully recovered. Nevertheless she will have to see the Doc every 6 months for the next 5 years to make sure it doesn't return.

Hope all you guys and gals are doing well! Appreciate the kind words as Marcus is a good kid. Also, he was just drafted by the Patriots in the 4th round so at least he is in a good situation.

At least he will get to wear red and blue now, by the way was that you at our practice today?

Why? Did you see a slightly over-weight, balding guy with a shaved head? Just kidding (sort of) but no I was not at the SMU practice. Glad to see Aldrick got drafted (for his sake and for ours!).

I saw a froggy wearing a froggy shirt.
