Re: Post your
reminiscences / tributes to Kwane Doster below
My deepest sympathy for his family, friends, teamates, and all
associated with this young man. How terrible that such great promise is quickly
taken from us removing from us all of his great contributions to come? It is all
so senseless, that it cannot be put into words. It is just an absolute tragic
loss.

Thank you to the
Doster family
Thank you for sharing Kwane with the Vanderbilt family. He was a wonderful
football player and a wonderful person. Our players wear a star on their helmet,
now they have one in the sky. God bless and thank you again.

Re: Post your

As a friendly rival, I'd like to express my condolences to the immediate family
as will as the Vanderbilt family of Kwane Doster. His loss is truly a
tragedy.
The prayers of the Razorback family are extended to all the
Commodore family at this very sad time.

Re: Post your
reminiscences / tributes to Kwane Doster below
During Kwane's freshman year, I changed my .sig on this board to "Have Doster,
Expect to Score", both in jest at our previous coach's slogan and in honor of
our exciting new running back. Now I'll never get to see that exciting young
player again. How fleeting life can be...
I'm surprised no one's posted
this:
----------------------------------------
The time you won your
town the race
We chaired you through the market-place;
Man and boy stood
cheering by,
And home we brought you shoulder-high.
To-day, the road
all runners come,
Shoulder-high we bring you home,
And set you at your
threshold down,
Townsman of a stiller town.
Smart lad, to slip
betimes away
From fields were glory does not stay
And early though the
laurel grows
It withers quicker than the rose.
Eyes the shady night
has shut
Cannot see the record cut,
And silence sounds no worse than
cheers
After earth has stopped the ears:
Now you will not swell the
rout
Of lads that wore their honours out,
Runners whom renown
outran
And the name died before the man.
So set, before its echoes
fade,
The fleet foot on the sill of shade,
And hold to the low lintel
up
The still-defended challenge-cup.
And round that early-laurelled
head
Will flock to gaze the strengthless dead,
And find unwithered on its
curls
The garland briefer than a girl's.

an Athlete Dying Young", A.E. Housman

I'm saddened beyond
belief
It's a shame that a 21 year old kid loses his life so tragically. My condolences
go out to Kwane's family and the entire Commodore family.

It doesn't seem
real
When I first read the news at the bottom of the screen on ESPN, I couldn't
believe it. It just didn't seem real. I've had a sick feeling in my stomach all
day. This is such a tremendous loss. Kwane was a wonderful young person with
everything going for him. It's so tragic that his life was cut so short.
My prayers are with his family today. May God bless them and
give them the kind of peace and strength that only He can give.

He will be missed on
campus
So tragic. My prayers go out to the family, friends, and all of my fellow
students who know him.
I do not know him personally, but I'm a junior as
well so I feel like I know him. He is someone that was supposed to graduate
along side me, and it is sad to know he won't

Our thoughts and
prayers...
are with VU and the Doster family. This is certainly a tragic incident,
particularly this time of year. Kwame Doster was quite a player, and quite a
person from what I understand.

championships, that are dedicated enough to make the sacrifice to win a
