Sad news, Mosports lost a good one over the weekend....

....from information forwarded to me by another member, Gianthook has passed away. My prayers with him as well as his family.

Shame. Always enjoyed reading his posts. Prayers and thoughts to his family. Thanks for passing this along Kenny.

He was a very informative poster. I have always enjoyed reading his commentary on HS FB in SE Missouri. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. He was a class act.

One of the long-time posters who always had good information and opinions, which were always well-stated. Definitely a throwback to the old days of MoSports. Will be missed.

Got to know a little about him when I did the point system database back in 2011 and he took interest in how it worked. Sad to hear, and thoughts and prayers to the family. Thanks @Kenny56 for posting.

Is it out of line to ask for his "real" name? He seemed like a very knowledgeable poster. I was thinking he was from SE Missouri.

His name was Mike Boone.

That's right. I'm pretty sure Mike called football down in the SEMO area. I sure did not know he was Gianthook. Good man for sure.
