I just wanted to send my thoughts and prayers to the Royster family. Rich started his career at Iona and was a teammate of mine in 2008 where I was a senior and he was a freshman. This is the 3rd major death involving a former Iona football player since we had the program dropped. He was a tremondous talent on and off the field. Extremly bright young man. May God rest his soul.

Thoughts are with the CCSU Football family....GO BLUE DEVILS!

Crap. Nothing else to really say, other than thoughts and prayers with CCSU, their players and family. As the poet said, sometimes the only answer to a child's grave is to lay down in front of it.

Well said. Condolences to the young man's family and the CCSU family. May God rest his soul.
