If you didn't know, Briles lost his parents and grandmother to a fatal crash when he was in college. His brother was his only immediate family member remaining. He now has his own family, but what a horrible stretch of tragedy.

My prayers for Coach Briles.

Yup, Cept I think it was his aunt who they said was "Like" a Grandmother to him. The story is they were on their way to watch him Play against SMU when a Tanker truck hit em Head on.

Ever since I've known of him, Briles has seemed like a genuinely good man. I'm particularly sad to see such tragedy befall him.
