Damn. That sucks. RIP and prayers for his family, friends, and teammates
 
I just read this story. Absolutely crazy how fast life can change. RIP
 
Sorry for the Bulldog family. Tomorrow is never promised
 
It’s a tragedy either way, but something fishy was definitely going on.

Player that rarely if ever saw the field and a white female recruiting staffer both killed in a single car crash late at night
 
RIP ❤️ 🖤

Wasn't going there, but I agree.
 
Prayers sent to the UGA family, awful news man.

Certainly questions have to be asked. Perhaps they were friends, she was giving him a left, or there was something more nefarious going on

They were probably together (not sure one night stand, dating, etc.). It is college and makes sense to me.
 
It wasn't just those two in the vehicle. There were two others that did not die in the crash. One other male, one other female. LeCroy was the driver. There is nothing available yet on what may have caused her to drive off of the road and run into two power poles and several trees.
 
JFC ... here are the facts as known:

- 4 people in what appears to be a UGAA black Ford Expedition that all the recruiters use. UGA has a whole fleet of these that are used to move the recruits around when they are on campus.
- This was a huge recruiting weekend for us ... had top recruits from 2023 and 2024 in town for the parade and celebration.
- Missed a turn at the top of a hill and went airborn.
- Front seat passengers dead - football player immediately, the driver at the hospital.
- Backseaters are in ICU at the hospital but expected to recover. FB player is McClendon, our RT who has declared for the NFL.
- Per reports, speed is an issue, alcohol is unknown.
- Per LEO who went to site: Going uphill on a five-lane road and came to a fairly sharp bend left. Appeared to have clipped the curb and gone airborne. No noticeable skid marks, but a 12–inch tree branch was seared off about 15 feet in the air and knocked 40 feet into the top of another tree. Other high branches clipped off. Power pole already replaced. Car came to a rest against an apartment close to the road and knocked out the door (now plywood).

Good lord. It is a miracle anyone survived this from the pictures. Unfortunately, I am guessing alcohol will be involved, because that car had to be going FAST to sheer a telephone pole in half like that.

Prayers to the families of all involved. Terrible tragedy for Georgia football family.
