Wow...this hurts. I know he had been in and out of the hospital a lot in the last 4 years but I'm sad to say R.I.P. to arguably one of the best coaches of all time.

He was 99-years old, I'm sure this doesn't surprise the same way as Bill Walsh passing.

This was on Twitter:

The Washington Post has retracted its report of John Wooden's death. Maybe those reporters can hire on as umps in Detroit.

Lol nice tweet.

But yeah apparently he is "gravely ill" but is in fact still alive. If he is that sick, hopefully he just passes peacefully soon.
