Guys,

I haven't posted here in awhile as I have been very busy. I know this is in the wrong forum and may be moved. If so, so be it.

I know many of you are on Twitter, following athletes and celebrities. It's a great tool, no doubt. I am asking for your help.

On Friday night, a 16 year old Junior at Tennessee High School (Downs and Crowder both played here) was involved in a fatal car accident and has passed away. The entire community up here wore blue for him today.

I originated the hashtag #WearBlueForAustin and we have had several teens step up and tweet until they are put in Twitter jail.

I personally knew Austin Arnold. He loved the Lord and truly carried the fruit of the Spirit with him. He always had a smile on his face, never knew a stranger, and was always so happy wherever he was.

As I mentioned, we did wear blue today, but we would still like to make this trend so people can learn about Austin. He was an amazing young man and we want the world to know about it. Please help us make this hashtag trend.

If I am breaking rules here, I apologize. If you do not wish to be involved in this process, I understand. I have seen what VolNation can do and I know this is the place to go to get something done. Thank you all!

The passenger is recovering well. He is still in the hospital but should be moved to a normal hospital room very soon! He is talking and walking around.

I wore blue last night at the Tennessee High basketball game. Most of the crowd had on blue, it was a very special tribute to a young man that will be missed. After the game the students gathered at mid court and chanted Austin' s name. He was only 16... Please hug your kids and tell them you love them.

It's always sad to hear about someone passing away. As someone earlier said its even worse when it's a young child that has his whole life ahead of him. My prayers and thoughts are with the family and community in this time of need
