Might be important for you DEVY drafters. Damn kids!!


Georgia RB Trevor Etienne booked for DUI, three other charge​



Georgia running back Trevor Etienne was arrested early Sunday for driving under the influence, reckless driving and two other misdemeanors, according to online records.
Etienne, a Florida transfer and the younger brother of Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne, was booked at 4:35 a.m. Sunday in the Athens-Clarke Jail and released about an hour later after posting bond.
The 20-year-old faces charges of DUI, reckless driving, failure to maintain lane/improper driving on the road and affixing materials that reduce visibility of windows/windshield. Etienne's DUI charge is classified as "less safe," which in Georgia means he can be convicted even if his blood-alcohol level is less than .08.

He has been projected as Georgia's top running back after transferring in from Florida, where he rushed for 1,472 yards and 14 touchdowns on 249 carries in two seasons. Etienne was an ESPN top 200 recruit in the 2022 class.
The team has not yet commented on Etienne's arrest. Etienne has been practicing with the team this spring.
Georgia has had a string of driving-related problems involving players in and around Athens, including an incident in January 2023 where recruiting staff member Chandler LeCroy and player Devin Willock were killed while racing a car driven by star defensive lineman Jalen Carter. Both cars were traveling at more than 100 miles an hour.

I'm not familiar with Georgia law. Does the "less safe" distinction imply that his blood test doesn't indicate impairment, but he failed a field sobriety test?

The way I interpret "Etienne's DUI charge is classified as "less safe," which in Georgia means he can be convicted even if his blood-alcohol level is less than .08.",is exactly what it says. I looked it up and they have a zero tolerance law for those under age 21..

Georgia's DUI laws set a legal limit for blood alcohol concentration (BAC) at 0.08%. This means that if your BAC is 0.08% or higher, you can be charged with DUI. However, if you are under the age of 21, the legal limit is much lower, at 0.02%. If you are driving a commercial vehicle, the legal limit is 0.04%

It means they can charge you with DUI whenever they damn well please. It subverts the entire concept of BAC tolerances.

Not sure if you're joking or not, but what it means is they are tougher on those under age 21 than not, with a 0.02 tolerance. Whereas it is 0.08 for those over 21. That is what it means.
 
Because those that are over 21 are more mature drinkers with more drunk driving experience, therefore more safe. :drive:

Not exactly.


The age provision is just one of 6 possible ways to classify DUI.

Being intoxicated, for the purposes of DUI in Georgia, means you:​
  • Are under the influence of alcohol to the extent that it is less safe to drive
  • Are under the influence of any drug to the extent that it is less safe to drive
  • Are under the intentional influence of any glue, aerosol or other toxic vapor to the extent that it is less safe to drive
  • Are under the combined influence of any of the three types of substances listed above to the extent that it is less safe to drive
  • Have a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 grams or more at any time within three hours after driving or being in actual physical control, 0.02 for drivers under age 21 and 0.04 for drivers of commercial vehicles
  • Have any amount of marijuana or a controlled substance present in your blood or urine

Check out how broad that language is on the first two.

Doing something more often makes you better at it Of course!(I’m joking)
I don't drink and drive because I don't want to spill my drink (I'm also joking).
Joking? So you mean, you do drink and drive because you don't care about spilling your drink? I hope you keep a stocked mini fridge in the car, with that kind of reckless mindset, or you could find yourself sober and thirsty. These drinks are not free, either, you gotta think of the financial implications of the spill. 🍻

My wife charges me for the minifridge mini bottles that I take out. She charges the same as they do in hotels. I've always resented her for that.
 
The #Jaguars could start receiving trade inquiries for RB Travis Etienne Jr. amid their 0-4 start, per @JFowlerESPN The Jaguars picked up Etienne’s 2025 5th-year option worth $6.14M, but it’s unclear if they plan to extend him beyond that.

Travis ≠ Trevor

Trevor Etienne: 11 carries for 38 yards in a 23-10 loss to Notre Dame. Not sure Georgia got its NIL money's worth for the third (or fourth) best running back on Gators' roster. Just sayin.

Georgia running back Trevor Etienne declared for the draft late last night--adding to an already incredibly deep class for backs.

Great year to get a starter right as the run game has become en vogue again.
 
I think he's making a big mistake coming out in the draft. He's nowhere near as good as Travis was or currently is. I think he's a day 3 pick, and probably closer to round 6 than round 4. Just nothing really impressive about his game. I think ts reasonable to ask, is he a better prospect than Kenny McIntosh was?

I agree, he is rather unspectacular and seems to be getting bad advice in a deep class at his position. With the ability to earn NIL money it seems like a no-brainer for him to wait a year and try to improve his stock against a seemingly weaker RB class.
 
Georgia is losing 4 starting OL, the offense might be in a serious regression year and they like to use multiple RB’s

It makes sense to me that he did not think coming back was going to allow him to improve his stock.

I’m not sure how his brother performed should be relevant to discussions about his NFL future.

I would be surprised if GA cant reload the oline. If was concerned about that he could just switch schools. Not sure who is giving him advice, but I would assume he thinks he will be drafted (which is not a guarantee imo).

I think that's a hefty thing to assume GA could rebuild 4/5th of a starting OL and get them playing cohesively. Especially when they kind of just struck out on replenishing the WR talent. If I put myself in his shoes no way in hell am I counting on that.

I expect him to a mid round pick. Will be shocked if he's not drafted.

Maybe, but this is what all programs have to deal with these days between the draft and NIL. In this deep class, if he is drafted I would guess he is a 6th-7th rounder.

Not all programs lose 4/5th of their starting OL in one year and when it happens that's an issue for the program to work through. Why should he have to stay and hope it gets fixed? Or leave and start all over on his third team and hope the new team works out for him? These are all risks.

From what I read he gave this a ton of thought the last two week, took into account a lot of advice....but rando's on a message board seem to know for sure what's best for him. And I can't prove this but I feel fairly strong a lot of people would think higher of him if his brother had performed better and that's kind of nuts to me.

And I read from a good source he's expected to be a mid round pick, which was said on Dec 3rd before he had a really excellent game against Texas in the SEC championship game and the two Penn ST RB's announced their intentions to return, both factors only helping. So I think he's most likely a 4th-5th round pick

Travis ≠ Trevor
Why would his parents give them names confusingly close to each other?
It’s better than what they had originally planned: Gregory and Schmegory.

I wish I was one of 6 George’s. “It wasn’t me. George did it.”
