Terrance Brooks, the Sac State strength and conditioning coach has passed away.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Sacramento State athletics department is saddened to announce the passing of Director of Strength and Conditioning Terrance Brooks on Monday, June 13.
"My thoughts and prayers go to Terrance's family at this time," Sacramento State Director of Athletics Terry Wanless said. "Terrance was a special person who I had had the honor of working with since he was a student-athlete. He was a valuable member of our staff and a man that everyone looked up to and respected. He will be deeply missed."
Brooks joined the Hornet family in February of 2009 and spearheaded the transformation of the strength and conditioning program. One of the biggest supporters of the department, Brooks could regularly be found in the stands or on the sidelines at most Sacramento State sporting events.

Another portion of the article mentioned that a previous stop for Coach Brooks was Towson.

I'm sayin' that if he died at 47, he obviously had something wrong with him...perhaps undiagnosed...

Or accident? Or an allergic reaction?

The article on the Towson website said he died during surgery. It didn't say for what.
