EGYPT, Miss. (AP) - A member of the University of Mississippi football team was killed Wednesday in a traffic accident in Chickasaw County, Miss. The Highway Patrol says in a statement that 20-year-old Park Stevens of Columbus was killed when his pickup collided with the rear of an 18-wheeler at Egypt Road and U.S. Highway 45A around 3 p.m. Wednesday. Stevens was pronounced dead at the scene. The patrol says the accident is under investigation. Ole Miss officials say Stevens joined the Rebels in the spring as a walk-on, transferring to Ole Miss after two seasons at East Central Community College. Stevens went through spring drills as a backup offensive tackle Coach Hugh Freeze posted on the Ole Miss Facebook page that team's thoughts and prayers are with the Stevens' family and friends

I was on the lake today with a girl who dates a lineman. She said she was with a lot of the team last night and they are all completely devastated. Don't text and drive people

I was fortunate enough to meet him this spring. He was a lot of fun to talk to and be around. Thoughts and prayers for his friends and family.

He seemed like a great guy from comments I saw on his Facebook page. Yes, I looked him up on Facebook. Judge me

I didn't know him all that well, but I really enjoyed getting to know him what little I did.

Anyone know if the team is going to his service?? It's crazy cause I just saw him last Friday and now to think that he's gone.

I would definitely think they would be going.

I would too. I would go but I'm in Florida for a wedding.

I had several classes with him in the spring and I work for the athletics department so I've seen him every day this summer. We weren't like best friends but we knew each other.
