R.I.P. Scott Scampini

Scott passed away on Tuesday at age 60. A long time MU supporter. Godspeed Scott.

Wow - any idea what happened Bangura? That is too bad. He was real tight with Mike Deane when he was the coach, but was always at everything MU wearing his Marquette basketball jacket.

That is when I got to know Scott, back in the day when I was on the Tip-Off Club board with Mike Deane. All I know is that Scott had been battling mental illness for a long time. My guess is it was a contributing factor.

All I know is that our chaplain Fr. Kelly knew him well and will be involved in Scott's funeral.
