    Seeing on Twitter that Keith Hatfield aka HatVol96 to the Vol Internet world passed away this morning at a Knoxville hospital. Was admitted last night apparently. No idea what happened or what was wrong. RIP to an OG Vol Internet character.

    Just saw that myself.

    Always enjoyed his complete lack of a filter.

    Damn. I don’t think he was yet 50. Way too soon. RIP

    Been reading his sports analysis since I was in middle school when I discovered his post game basketball reports from the VolNation days. Always enjoyed his takes on things, despite thinking half of his opinions were crazy. Such a character. His posts and tweets were must read material.

    Wow this is truly sad. He was very kind to me and his writing gave me hours of entertainment.

    Wow. The Wire is one of the best series ever, imo, except maybe season 2. Ziggy got on my nerves. Bad.

    Loved that guy. What happened?

    Edit: I see that an overdose is suspected. Williams was very candid about his struggles with addiction in many interviews.

    He was brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. And he demanded near perfection.
