RIP to Jon. 

 

I think his play in the FSU game was one of the 5 most memorable defensive plays in USF Football history. I had said it, along with LRS Jr. OT int against Cincinnati; Kayvon Webster scoop and score against ND, and the pick 6 vs. WVU ...not sure what would be the 5th.  JR Reed single handedly won a game, but I don't think of it as a single defensive play.

IIRC he was the one who broke the long slump of no interceptions by the defense in 2012 as well. Might have been the first INT of the season at that point? Or the first since the FCS game to start the season.

Sad to hear about this.

Sad news. He made one of the best hits in USF history in that win against FSU. That set the tone.
