Harris' vehicle had a temporary tag that expired on Aug. 4, 2024. His vehicle registration expired on March 8, 2024.

Harris' arrest comes on the heels of running back Trevor Etienne being suspended for the opener against Clemson. Etienne was arrested in March and charged with DUI.

Both cars were traveling at more than 100 mph, and police said alcohol was involved in the crash.
