Sources say he possibly died in a Fraternity hazing incident.

RIP Brandon. Tragic

Not only is it real, but there are s on there defending the now deleted tweet. Guy should be suspended if not terminated. Disgusting post.

Never even entered my mind that Coach Key meant anything other than to help give our grieving GT family something to smile about on such a dark day. Thank you @CoachBrentKey

Don’t hate on the man. He didn’t no anything wrong. What happen Brandon is horrible. But he’s just trying to do his job.

Please don’t listen to all these thugs Coach Key! They are just trying to shake things up because they are scared of what you are doing as a coach and a recruiter.

This is the culture of college football.

Yes, totally different than college basketball I’m sure. Let’s not kid ourselves, players are equally commodified and valued primarily for their ability to be commodities in both sports

Eh, as much as I love attacking the NCAA, this one is really not on them...

Well the NCAA certainly fosters the culture that allows someone to think / post something like this. The amount the NCAA is willing to turn a blind eye to any bad behavior that doesn't effect their revenue is sad. As long as schools keep that money coming in, the NCAA doesn't care about the morals about their behaviors. But we already knew that.

Sad story none the less.

No. Football fans and boosters do. Want to change the culture? Stop watching.

Pretty far out of bounds here. NCAA does plenty of things wrong, but they cannot stop everyone from being a total all the time. This is on the GTech head coach and the GTech administration to take action.

Fair enough!

True and time will tell if GT does anything here. But regardless, the NCAA allows GT to wear its logo. If I was the NCAA, this is not how I would want my brand represented.

I do think there’s a difference. More players, more injuries, a greater need to compartmentalize a kid’s serious injury—or, in this case, death—and adopt a tough-guy “next man up” mantra.

Of course kids are commodities in both sports as well as others, but football’s violence makes it unique.
