UCF offensive line coach Shawn Clark died on Sunday night at the age of 50.
The school said he passed unexpectedly at an Orlando hospital with his wife, Jonelle, by his side.
Clark, who was in his first season with the Knights, had been in stable condition since being admitted Sept. 9 following a medical emergency.
“Shawn was so much more than a coach. He was a remarkable man, husband, and father who cared deeply about his players and staff,” said UCF head coach Scott Frost. “The reaction of our players and coaches to the news this morning is a testament to Shawn’s character and the impact he had on every life that he touched. He was loved. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Jonelle, and children, Giana and Braxton. We are here to support them and will continue to keep them in
