Morris Foreman was such an awesome person and player.
Guys...the Pirate Nation lost a favored son today as Morris Foreman - aka MoFo - died of a massive heart attack early Thursday morning.
He was an all-time favorite of mine and was probably, at the time, one of the biggest signees that ECU had ever landed. He was a blue-chipper who picked the Pirates over Michigan, N.C. State, and UNC. He was an awesome option QB for Farmville High School.
Played strong safety before moving to linebacker. I remember him for a couple of things...one, for taking over the Army game one year...one man show. Also from the 1995 Liberty Bowl...he was a maniac on the field.
More than that, MoFo was just simply an outstanding person.
Turn one up if you got one for him.
He was 32.

WOW. I'm shocked. I remember him well, too. He played four years and forced Greg Grandison, the pre-season No. 1 candidate for the Jim Thorpe Award, to the bench in his senior season.
Wow.
