the former Purdue standout who was a 1st round pick and played 3 years in the league has apparently died of natural causes.  No additional information has been released about how he died, but he had reportedly ballooned to over 400 pounds.  Sad.

Sad indeed.  Overeating can be a pretty strong addiction / compulsion.  Swanigan never made the big bucks that make something like hiring a full-time personal chef practical.

Very sad. All the people who knew him raved about how good a person he was. He clearly had some serious health issues. RIP

Very sad. Hopefully he does not have kiddos, which would make this even more tragic.
