Jaquan Yulee Dead: Former Linebacker's Final Message Before Horrific Car Accident Revealed

Jaquan Yulee, a former linebacker at Marshall University, has died. He was 24.

The officials of Marshall Football announced the heartbreaking news on its Twitter account. It shared an old photo of Yulee alongside a short tribute for the late player.

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of former Marshall football student-athlete Jaquan Yulee. His energy and ability to connect with so many in our fanbase was exemplary. He will be missed by so many in the Thundering Herd," the caption said.

Meanwhile, WVEC reported that the athlete died following a car crash on Tuesday. The single accident in Virginia caused his car to flip onto its roof.

Authorities immediately responded to the scene and checked on him. However, they pronounced him dead on the spot.

The morning before his death, Yulee posted his inspiring philosophy about choosing a school. Per the late linebacker, a person's choice of school should not be influenced by how big the facility is or who went to it before anyone else.

Unfortunately, he could no longer continue fighting for his belief following his untimely passing.

"Jonathan Goddard. Larry Aaron. Devon Johnson. Obviously 1970. Now Jaquan Yulee. The Marshall football program has had to deal with more tragedy and loss than any one program ever should," another added.
