Wow, sad news.

Very sad, one of the most memorable Big 10 players of the last 20 years.

I'll never forget the game when we clinched the Big Ten Championship in Ann Arbor and Traylor blantently threw his body into Bobby Jackson, knocking him over when he was already 2 feet out of bounds. Had the game been at Williams, Traylor would have likely been tossed from the game. Ahhh the good old days! I'll remember that season till the day I die.

I agree - I loved playing Michigan when he was there, and just loved that he didn't fit the mold of a typical bball player. So sad to have heart problems at such a young age
