Impairment is not suspected in the crash near LSU’s campus gates
LSU quarterback Colin Hurley was found injured but unresponsive after an on-campus car crash at 2:45 a.m. on Thursday morning, according to police. Hurley had a large cut on his face, according to WBRZ, and impairment was not suspected.
The crash occurred near South Quad Drive and Highland Road in Baton Rouge, near the gates of LSU’s campus. Hurley was removed from his Dodge Charger and taken to a hospital. No update has been provided on his status at this time, especially since Hurley, 17, is still a minor.
“We are working through proper protocols with his family before we can have any comment,” LSU told ESPN.
Hurley reclassified into the Class of 2024 and started taking classes at LSU at just 16 years old. The freshman from Jacksonville, Florida, was rated the No. 22 quarterback and a four-star recruit in the 247Sports rankings. He redshirted during the 2024 season behind starting quarterback Garrett Nussmeier and is slated to serve as the third-string quarterback behind Nussmeier and Mississippi State transfer Michael Van Buren.
