Couldn't find his recruiting page, feel free to move if posted.

Wasn't a domer long, still sad. Probably doesn't look good for football in general. Prayers to the family.

Damn, just saw this. Hard to believe he was 29, doesn't seem that long ago he was on the team. RIP.

Got damn. The feels.

Wow... big Carew fan family here... crazy.

If you haven't already, read the article in the Mercury News. Well worth your time.

This is a Reader's Digest story, only with people we know. Ones who touched our lives in the past and are doing it again ... in a more meaningful manner.

Konrad signed up for the Organ Donor Program six months before his death.


Rod Carew's new heart came from former Stanford, NFL player

Truly amazing to think that all it takes is for you to check a box, and, though it may not be celebrated quite like this, you can be a hero.

THIS.

If you take your soft parts to the grave, you are either selfish or lazy.

Wow he passed away in December. I didn't know that. What a great thing he did for Rod.

RIP Konrad. God bless the Rueland family.
