RIP Russ. You will be missed.

Does anyone know when his last post on here was? Seems like very recently.

Wow shocker - he was so informative at times. Prayers to his family. He will be missed around here.

I believe his last post was late November
Seems like yesterday.
A huge loss to TKR

Russ was great to me for a long time.....I'd send an instant message once in awhile asking about a bunch of players RU recruited or other recruits and always provided great insight. Had a sense of humor that made him great and will be missed.

If there was anyone who was Pro Rivals or Pro Rivals network, it was Russ Wood. Great guy and loved his hoops.

Heartbreaking. Russ always knew his stuff and made us laugh. Just hoping he did not suffer. Prayers and strength to his family and friends.
