Thoughts, love, support and other reactions were expressed across the Utah and Pac-12 football communities after learning of the tragedy that occurred with the passing of Aaron Lowe.

At the beginning of the 2021 season, Lowe became the first recipient of the Ty Jordan Memorial Scholarship and switched his jersey from No. 2 to No. 22 to honor Jordan's legacy, whose passing came from a tragic incident as well.
