WolvesOnTheProwl Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Gregg Smith, longtime assistant coach and DC for the Mishawaka Cavemen passed away last night. I don't have any details, just got a text from my mom this morning and checked the social media world and saw the devastating news. Such a great guy, father, husband, coach, teacher... Gut wrenching. Prayers to his wife and 2 sons, and to all of those in the Mishawaka community, you lost a great one. Quote

Killer51 Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Greg was a great guy. Competed against him in high school and as coaches. Spent many hours in his basement office in the off season battling on the white board. RIP brother. #LOD 2 Quote
stryker Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Smitty was a pledge brother of mine at Ball State. I've been stunned all day. Just the absolute best dude in the world and will be sorely missed! He was the type who made the trip to Indy for the State Finals every year regardless of who was playing... and made time to hook up with us Indy Sig Eps when he did. My heart and prayers go out to his wife and his boys (affectionately known as the Nutball Brothers) as well as his entire family! 3 Quote
XStar Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) Did not know him but I live in the community and the reaction from those on social media who knew him is pretty overwhelming. He clearly meant alot to many people. Prayers to his family, including his wife and two sons. I can't even imagine. Edited March 9, 2021 by XStar 1 1 Quote
