Early Thursday morning, LSU freshman quarterback Colin Hurley was injured in a car accident on campus. According to police reports, the 17-year-old was found unresponsive but breathing near a campus entrance around 3 a.m. after his vehicle reportedly struck a tree.
Hurley, who did not play during his first season at LSU, was driving a Dodge Charger at the time of the incident. Emergency responders transported him to a local hospital for treatment. His family released a statement confirming his stable condition and expressing gratitude for the support received. They are optimistic about his full recovery.
While the exact cause of the accident remains undisclosed, authorities have indicated that impairment was not a contributing factor. Due to Hurley's status as a minor, university officials have refrained from providing further details.
