Deeply saddened by some tragic news yesterday.Jeremy Ingram @jerm_blazin , his fiance, and newborn were in a tragic car accident days ago in which he suffered a broken neck. I Love this kid with every fiber in my body. He's like a child to me. I ask that you continue to keep him and his family in Prayer. NC Central Basketball is what it is in large part because of this kid. His fiance (Brandy) suffered a broken arm and the baby is Wonderful with no injuries (To God Be the Glory). The family will set up a GoFundMe next week and I ask that you give and share to support medical and extended services to support the family as they endure this uphill climb. Again, this is tough for everyone, but TOGETHER we will get through. God Bless. #WeAreNCCU #Pray4Jerm
