Talked to someone regarding #Badgers assistant Howard Moore. As of earlier today he was in a coma. It sounds as if — as of earlier today — Moore wasn’t yet aware of the passing of his wife/daughter. Oh. My. God.

Absolutely heartbreaking news regarding Wisconsin assistant Howard Moore and his family. Involved in a car accident late last night that claimed life of his wife and daughter. Awful. Howard suffered non-life threatening injuries and his son suffered minor injuries. So sad.
