So many great memories from going to UT games to late nights playing cards to him sleeping on my couch every Saturday just so he didn´t have to wake up early and drive over to watch football on sunday. I will always owe Brad a debt because when I feel on tough times he supported me more than anyone else I know and for that I am forever grateful. Brad was one of a kind and will be deeply missed by myself and so many others. It was an honor to call him a friend.
