Fallen teammate

[edit]

The season was marred by the September death of starting cornerback Eric McMillan, a redshirt freshman from Murrieta, California, and originally from Tuskegee, Alabama. In a case of mistaken identity, he was shot in his apartment in south Moscow on Sunday afternoon, a day after the third game of season, and died at Gritman Medical Center.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
