Yea, he could never quite conquer all those demons. Very sad to die at 67. Then to top it all off, his daughter ended up marrying and then divorcing a jerk.
RIP. A Gator great who had one of the best arms ever to wear the orange & blue. Set school and NCAA records at the time he played. Sad to die at such a young age, but his demons are no longer plaguing him. Prayers to his family.
I remember him from HS. I hated him back then, cause he had some real obvious arm talent (and I didn't go to Robinson), even as a starting Soph QB in HS. But all was forgiven when he became a Gator.
RIP Big John, and prayers for him and his family...
