You can see the full story above from Yahoo Sports.

This is some terrible news for the Duke Basketball family and all Duke fans.  It is sickening to think about the pain Mr. Emma must have been in to, as it seems, take his own life.  Most everyone has been affected at some point by a friend or member of their own family that is battling with depression.  Unfortunately each and every story like the one above is just another stark reminder to do our best to help anyone who is struggling with this disease. 

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Emma family.
