A really nice write up on Mallett and his choice to become a high school coach.

The tragedy of Ryan Mallett's death is in the lives he won't be able to impact

Ryan Mallett made it to the NFL, but all he ever really wanted to be was a high school football coach.

Kind of odd that there was no rip current at the time he drowned. I’m in the ocean for hours every time I’m at the beach and it’s so easy to float in salt water. Just don’t panic. Swim with the current. Wonder if he was highly intoxicated.

I'm sure there will be a tox report. It's strange, for sure.

When ever I hear of a younger person drowning I can’t help but think intoxication. Sad either way

A lot of people go into our lakes here in Arizona fully dressed in shoes, jeans, etc., and then they struggle to swim dressed like that. He likely either wasn't a great swimmer or he was impaired in some way.
