Blue & Gold Posted October 23, 2020 Report Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Scrolling through Twitter it looks like former Zip DeArius Reese may have passed away. He’d only be around 21-22 years old. I’ll post more if/when I see something. Edited October 23, 2020 by Blue & Gold Quote

Blue & Gold Posted October 23, 2020 Author Report Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) I'm sorry. The former Akron East DL who played for Akron was DeAndre Brimmage, not DeeArius Reese. My mistake. DeAndre is fine. It was, however, DeeArius Reese who was shot and killed Thursday night. I saw a lot of Reese in high school and remember thinking the Zips should be after him. The article says grades were definitely an issue. DeeArius is the man who was shot at the Firestone -v- East game played at Ellet HS about a month ago. Idk if the instances were related. I never met DeeArius, but man did I like him as a football player. Edited October 23, 2020 by Blue & Gold Quote
LZIp Posted October 24, 2020 Report Posted October 24, 2020 That’s too unfortunate. I remember him as well and was excited when he committed to Akron. 1 Quote
