Miami Hurricanes linebacker Adarius Hayes has been released from the hospital after being involved in a two-car crash Saturday that killed three people.
Police say Hayes was driving a Dodge Durango when it collided with a Kia Soul at an intersection in Largo, Florida.
The driver of the Kia, along with two children in the vehicle, ages 10 and 4 were killed in the crash. Another passenger was hospitalized with serious injuries, police say.
Hayes, a linebacker who played sparingly for the Hurricanes as a true freshman in 2024, was taken to a hospital with what were determined to be non-life-threatening injuries.
"We are deeply saddened to learn the crash resulted in three fatalities, as confirmed by Largo Police, and our thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones of those lost," the school said in a statement.
Largo Police said Sunday there were "no signs of impairment with either driver' and no criminal charges were pending.
Hayes played in 12 games for the Hurricanes as a true freshman in 2024, making four tackles and recording one interception. He was a four-star prospect out of Largo High School and was ranked as Rivals' No. 3 linebacker in the 2024 national recruiting class.

Ex-Louisville basketball star Russ Smith arrested on suspicion of drunken driving
Former Louisville basketball star Russ Smith was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving in Kentucky over the weekend, according to online records. Smith, a member of the team that won the 2013 NCAA title which was later vacated due to rules violations, was arrested just after midnight on Sunday and charged with operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol. The Louisville Courier Journal reported that officers noted Smith's vehicle driving across multiple lanes, including a crosswalk, and that the vehicle's tags were expired. According to the report, officers detected a "strong odor of alcoholic beverages" on Smith's breath during the traffic stop. Smith reportedly failed a field sobriety test and had a blood alcohol content of 0.073. The Louisville Courier Journal reported that Kentucky law allows that drivers with BAC greater than 0.04 but less than 0.08 may still be charged based on other evidence. Smith reportedly admitted to officers that he had "two bourbon pours neat" before driving. Online jail records indicated that Smith was also charged with not having proper registration plates and reckless driving. He was released on Sunday and is due back in court on Wednesday. The 34-year-old former college basketball player was a member of the 2013 NCAA men's basketball championship-winning team where he averaged 18.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists in the tournament. The NCAA stripped the basketball program of that title because of a major rules violation years later. Smith spent a brief period in the NBA playing for the New Orleans Pelicans and the Memphis Grizzlies.
