ORLANDO, Fla. -- UCF offensive line coach Shawn Clark died Sunday at 50 years old, nearly two weeks after he was hospitalized with a medical emergency, the school announced.
Clark suffered the medical emergency on Sept. 9 and had been away from the team. He was reported to be stable at the hospital last week. The team did not disclose his specific condition at the time.
"Shawn was so much more than a coach," UCF coach Scott Frost said in a statement. "He was a remarkable man, husband, and father who cared deeply about his players and staff. 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."
Clark joined UCF's staff this season after five seasons as head coach at Appala
