Ohio State held a moment of silence for Karageorge before Saturday's game against Michigan and a missing poster was displayed on the scoreboard at Ohio Stadium. After the game, coach Urban Meyer called Karageorge's disappearance "unbelievable" and said "All you can do is grab a knee and pray hard."
"I know there's a lot of prayers
on the team because a lot of the guys are friends with Kosta," Meyer
continued. "He was only with us since August, so I didn't know him that
well but talked to his mom a few times. Just come home safe, man."
The school released a statement Sunday afternoon.
"The Ohio State University
Department of Athletics was shocked and saddened to learn today of the
death of student-athlete Kosta Karageorge, a senior from Columbus," the
statement said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the Karageorge
family, and those who knew him, during this most difficult time."
Karageorge's family became
worried for him when he left his apartment without any identification at
approximately 2 a.m. on Wednesday. He hadn't been seen since.
