According to ESPN reports and Union Parish Sheriff Dusty Gates, ESPN’s No. 10 RB turned himself in on Thursday after the February 9 shooting incident and was booked at the Union Parish Detention Center.

Holly entered LSU as a 4-star recruit and No. 15 RB of the 2023 class. Last season, he played three games as a true freshman with 11 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown. He previously started at Union Parish High School for five years taping a state-high record with 10,523 rushing yards along with 160 TDs. Whether the charges are true or not remains to be seen, but the event has undeniably tarnished his career forever.
