RIP Marcus Outzen

[Hacksaw]

Just heard this. He was a tough competitor and worthy of respect. 46 years old.

Very sad

Too young to go. Any day could be your last.

Yes is true any day. Job 19 ,"I know my Redeemer lives ". Old song from the 60's, "Are you ready?" Settled business via King of Kings. Hopefully good support for his widow and children from FSU family.

Horrible news. Way too young. Prayers for the family.

That really sucks. Sorry to hear that.

 

[MrWiz]

R.I.P Rooster! He did beat Spurrier and the mighty gators that year.

 

[Sam I Am]

Just read this. Sounded like an incredible young man, husband, father and son.

God speed Marcus. Enter into your rest good and faithful servant.

 

[General Jack]

Wow, sad news. Prayers for his family.

Not to derail this thread further, but you realize his family isn't reading a Tennessee message board for support, right?

Timing was a bit odd, as I was just on a 14 day transatlantic cruise these past 2 weeks and about 4-5 days ago I had a nice conversation w a FSU fan and we were talking about the 98 Natty and neither of us could remember his name. Next day, we both unfortunately remembered it when we read about his sad demise. RIP Marcus and best to your family.

 

[lukeneyland]

That’s a shame

 

[BreatheUT]

The fact that he was 46 just drives home the fact that we are all aging at the same rate as him. I was just a handful of years out of college myself when we won that title. Looking back he seemed to be a good character player.

1-0 against fLorida as a starter.

Some people have forgotten that if he hadn't led the Seminoles to that upset, then we were headed for a rematch with Spurrier in the BCS National Championship with both Kansas State and UCLA losing on the final weekend.

So many things went our way in 98'.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

RIP to the "Rooster", prayers for his family. That is way too young.

46 is way too young to die and condolences to the family.

The one game I wanted no part of that year was a rematch vs Spurrier. I remember that I thought we would've beaten everybody that year, but the rematch worried me.
