Looks like he will need to burn that redshirt year next year.
As to the single car accident, I would not assume alcohol is the culprit yet.
They took a blood sample according one of the papers and the results are not in yet. I realize that there was alcohol in the car, but that is not against the law unless it is being consumed.
Lots of things can happen at 2:45 in the morning. Lots of drivers fall asleep, animals jump out on the road and you swerve to avoid them (unless they are badgers-I hate those stinking badgers).
Too bad, but I think he was going to redshirt anyway, I just hope he did not cause any permanent injuries.
