Patric Young, a former Florida men’s hoops star and current SEC Network analyst, is recovering in a hospital in South Dakota after a scary accident on Wednesday morning.
Young’s crash as a one-vehicle rollover crash in Nebraska.
Per Yankton.net, Young and a passenger were approaching an intersection when a sudden stop caused the truck to roll over:
The investigation revealed Patrick Young, 30, of O’Neill, was operating a motor vehicle northbound on 511 Avenue, approaching the intersection with 881 Road. Young was unfamiliar with the roadway and, upon approaching the intersection, started to apply his brakes. Young didn’t believe he would be able to stop in time and turned to his left, causing the pickup to lose traction and slide sideways across 881 Road. After crossing the roadway, the pickup rolled over once and settled on its wheels. Young and another individual subsequently contacted Knox County authorities.
Young did not have a seat belt on during the rollover accident and was subsequently transported to Avera McKennan in Sioux Falls. There was no indication of injuries to the passenger.
On Sunday morning, Young took to Twitter to say he’s thankful for the support he’s received since the accident:
First thing I want to say is Praise God for life! My accident was no surprise to God and I will continue to praise Yahweh everyday of my life. The love and support I’ve received from everyone has been tremendous. I’m currently in South Dakota (got to see Cody Larson ❤️)

Continue to keep my family and myself in your prayers. My biggest request is for my mind to stay strong against the enemy, I believe anything is possible with God. His Will for my life is what I want to live in, I will use this test to inspire others no matter what.
