Like every other Lely High student in the 2007 senior class, Ereck Plancher was asked to provide a quote to run with his picture in the school yearbook.

Here’s what he wrote:

“An elder Plancher once told me, ‘Live each day like it’s your last, because the next day is not guaranteed.’â€Â

Plancher died less than an hour after he collapsed March 18 following an offseason football workout. The University of Central Florida wide receiver was in Orlando with his teammates preparing for his redshirt freshman season.

He lived 19 years, three months and five days.

I think I join all of USF in offering our thoughts and prayers to his family, friends, and team.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
