One of the very best to play the position here at Nebraska.

Met him just one time briefly but I thought he was a genuinely good guy. Very sorry to learn this.

Probably the most underappreciated RB in school history. Sad to see. RIP.

I was at the game in Lawrence his FR year when KU was up 17-0 in the first and then Jones went off. 6 TD's and almost 300 yards.

Great player who had a lot of hype coming out of HS and lived up to it. Another great Central IB. I wish they still made those.

RIP

I saw a clip from Reddit where Vershan Jackson was losing it. He said he was one of the best guys he knew.

Man, this sucks. Calvin was a great guy. He and Derek Brown were a heck of a RB combo.

This is heartbreaking. Calvin was one of my favorite RB's at Nebraska and I followed his career at Central too.

He was the running back for Nebraska on Bill Walsh College Football. Pretty much unstoppable. Played the shit out of that game as a kid and one of the things that led me to being such a huge football fan. RIP to a legend.
