Man, I really liked him. One of those guys that had true gravitas.

Wow, that's a shocker. He was one of the better journalists out there IMO.

Condolences and prayers to his family.

So saddened by this! Does anyone know if he can been unwell?

Jeez...far too young. Saunders always struck me as the rare ESPN host who did not evolve into a caricature of himself. And that's a good thing.

RIP.

Great sports reporter and desk anchor. Will miss him.

Sadly, the rumours on twitter are that it may have been suicide. He'd reportedly been battling depression....

No idea he was not well. ESPN has lost some good men over the past year or so. A pro and a good guy. Condolences to the Saunders and ESPN families.
