LSU QB Colin Hurley in Stable Condition After Being Hospitalized Following Car Crash

LSU freshman quarterback Colin Hurley has been hospitalized after being found unresponsive but breathing following a car accident near the gates of LSU's campus, per ESPN's Chris Low.

Hurley's family released a statement saying the player is stable and are confident he will make a full recovery:

The crash report said Hurley was found by LSU police and the Baton Rouge Fire Department just before 3 a.m. on Thursday. EMS and fire department personnel took the 17-year-old out of his Dodge Charger and transported him to a local hospital.

LSU school officials said they were not able to comment on the cause of the crash because Hurley is still a minor. His parents were on their way to Baton Rouge from their home in Jacksonville.

"We are working through proper protocols with his family before we can have any comment," LSU senior associate athletic director and chief communications officer Zach Greenwell told Low via text message.

Hurley was a 4-star recruit in the class of 2024 in 247Sports' composite. He didn't see the field in 2024 as a true freshman for the Tigers. 247Sports director of scouting Andrew Ivins noted that he led Trinity Christian Academy to a Florida 2A state title as a freshman. He reclassified from the 2025 class to 2024 and started college classes at the age of 16. Ivins described him as "a quarterback protege of sorts."
