Caleb Swanigan, former Purdue star, dead at 25 (fox59.com) Damn - way too young!! This kid was on another level during the 2016-2017 season at Purdue - just pure dominance. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.
I believe I read he was over 600 lbs at death. There’s your natural causes. Sent from my iPad using Butler Hoops mobile app
I think that was his dad, who died of diabetic complications in 2014. Hard to gain 350 lbs in 3 years… Sent from my iPhone using Butler Hoops mobile app
Yeah, I think you’re right. I wasn’t listening to the radio that closely. I have heard since that he has battled his weight most of his life. In the end his organs started shutting down. Gone to soon. Sent from my iPad using Butler Hoops mobile app
Wow, this is awful. Hard to believe how much can change in just a few years. Condolences to those that were close to him.
It's so sad bc of all he overcame to reach as far as he did in basketball. In the end, it will say he died of physical natural causes, but I think he died bc of mental health issues forced upon him during his youth development. Just so sad
