@@succulentflakesofperfectly5541 I think your response highlights a systematic flaw in our treatment of people with mental health issues more than anything. The problem isn't guns, and gun control isn't the solution, the solution is better treatment and awareness on mental health. This man didn't save the school by beating the kid up, he gave him a hug, told him he mattered. The kid obviously has issues to think that bringing a gun to the school is a solution but doesn't mean he isn't just like any other kid who wants to be loved, cared about.

Id like to personally thank Keanon for this cuz my son was one of the students there at the time. Thank you so much. I was the scariest moment of my life when my son contacted me. Thank you for keeping my son safe.

I gotta say, his best friend is definitely looking down proud as heck.

That young man was in 20 different kinds of pain and felt like he had no other option. This coach showed him the kindness and love he was missing. In that moment, this coach not only stopped a shooter, he saved a promising life. I hope that kids gets better and uses this experience to make a difference in the life of someone else who needs it.

This made me cry everyone should strive to be like this guy💯

that moment that he saved students lives that day was absolutely amazingly heroic but this guy is a hero everyday in the way he teaches & mentors his team members. what a beautiful human being. sorry for the loss of his best friend. that was a senseless loss of life due to drugs.

What an incredible man he is! His love and care for others is an example we all should follow! He changes lives! Bless him!!

This guy has a future in coaching that’s going to leave so many kids with a better outlook on life . Not to mention he seems to know how to get a football team to completely transform with the same players that would of attended either way .

I read an article written by Adam Rittenberg for ESPN and Keanon was quoted as saying "It wasn't in me to beat him up or hold him down or hurt him, even though it was seconds after this crazy thing happened. I felt his vibe, I felt how scared he was, I felt it all". _That's_ why he hugged Angel. Well done Keanon, great job. Edit: There is another article written by Greg Bishop for Sports Illustrated where Keanon says of the gun incident and his best friend who died "Taylor was with me. He was right there the whole time".

This man is a hero for every life he is saving and changing with those students and football team.... removing the shotgun and hugging a possible school shooter is just a reflection of his daily work!! Bless him, we need more that care this deeply about our kids!!

I’m very much what you can call a, “mans man”, but this made me shed a tear. This man is an American hero. He’s what I inspire to be. He’s what all men should inspire to be. May god bless this man, and may he live a long fulfilling life. He deserves it. 👌🏼🇺🇸

"That wasnt my time"; "I think he just needed a hug more than he needed to be tackled." What this man did for this young man, and everything hes going through just came to an end. Lowe, youre a Saint man, you could have easily done more but your instinct at that moment was heroic.

All those steps in life put him where he was meant to be....what a hero!

You are a hero. Both to all those students you potentially saved, and to the distraught lonely individual. You hugging him gave me hope for humanity. I pray that you and the students recover and that the "shooter" finds some love and hope in his life. And you hugging him, was the first step.

Tyler Serafin Chip Kelly, his former NFL coach who is now at UCLA, hired Mr. Lowe as an analyst for UCLA in January

So many just need a hug. I had a child tell me he loved me, I was a coach for wrestling in an affluent area, I started in the youth program. In those programs there were often way more kids than coaches so I never turned down helping other programs. This child was from the inner city not my club but needed a coach so I coached him. He would see me and ask will you be in my matt for me I'd say yes if it doesnt effect my wrestlers. He would smile and say thanks. I did this for a whole season, being at his matches. Would talk to him after. One day I said I was happy for him he smiled I followed it up with I'm always proud of you but happy when good things happen but always proud. This child reared up and said I'venever made any man proud. I hugged him and said you have. He cried and said he loved me. He fell into me and we just hugged there for quite a bit neither of us wanting to stop. My sons saw it and then all 4 of us were hugging.I tell you what I cant do this without crying. He was raised by his gma and she said he talks about me all the time. This child never felt love from a man. And all I did was give him a little attention. Love prevails people.

“That wasn’t my time though” That smile afterwards man, chills 🙏🏻

“He just needed a hug” amazing words

The world needs more people like him

Mans is a legend bro! He put his life on the line just to help others. I wish there was a lot more of him on this earth

This is the most selfless man that I have ever seen. At his young age he could possibly be a WR coach maybe an OC in a high paying NFL/College program but decided to go to a high school to educate and make a difference. I absolutely believe the kid with a gun did need someone to care about him and hopefully he can learn and be a productive member of society. A lot of these kids that bring these guns in schools are bullied and maybe there home life is in turmoil and that does not condone their actions.

Amazing person.

What an amazing human.

If only this world we live in had more men like this
