Manning's football coach, Michael Brown Sr., said everyone who knew Manning is heartbroken, and that like many other boys his age, he loved sports, especially football. 

“This kid had a scholarship to go to a private school to play football," Brown said, fighting tears. "We didn't even have a parent to fill out his paperwork to get him enrolled at school, but we want him to make it? Like, these are the things we go through in the inner city with our kids."
