So sad to hear. I was excited to see him for a while in green and white but unfortunately it just didn't happen. Does anyone know what might've happened? If I remember right, he had a health issue at one point.

Terrible news. He had health problems: Fundraiser by Zachary Cook : From Aspiring Pro Basketball Player to Fighting for His Life (gofundme.com)

Didnt know that Culver worked at hinderer Honda in heath. Wished I had known as I'm in there all too frequently. I remember watching him play for pick central once a year when they visited newark and then 1 brief season as a bobcat.

Thanks for sharing, I wasn't aware of all of Rodney's health issues. It's horrible to hear about someone with such a bright future being taken so soon.

Same age as the Rodney Culver who died in the ValuJet crash. That is a near-impossible tragic coincidence.
