North Texas forward Eboniey Jeter, earlier this week, was found dead in her dorm room. Her death caught many off-guard, as it didn't seem like the 21-year old had any physical or austere ailments -- and seemed perfectly healthy.

But according to a report by the Denton Record-Chronicle, Jeter apparently committed suicide. Here is some of the report:
