Miami running back Jordan Lyle arrested on felony aggravated fleeing charge in Broward County

Miami running back Jordan Lyle has been slated to take the next step this season after the Canes' championship appearance last year, but his season is not off to the best start.

The 20-year-old rising junior was arrested in Broward County on Thursday on a felony complaint of aggravated fleeing or eluding law enforcement, court records say.

Lyle is accused of driving "in any manner which demonstrates a wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property" and "willfully" trying to get away from police.

"We are aware of an incident involving student-athlete Jordan Lyle. As due legal process runs its course, we will have no further comment at this time," Miami said in a statement.

Lyle appeared in six games last year while backing up ACC rushing leader Mark Fletcher Jr. He showed promise early on but suffered an injury in Miami's first game of the season and never fully recovered. He returned several weeks later but was shut down after Miami's Nov. 8 game against Syracuse, having never played more than eight snaps upon returning.

In his abbreviated time, he had 35 carries for 108 yards and a touchdown. In his freshman season, he averaged a whopping 7.4 yards per carry (54 rushes, 400 yards) and scored four times in his 12 games played.

Lyle's arrest comes just days after head coach Mario Cristobal sang his praises amid what's been reported as a strong camp.

"I see the Jordan Lyle that we saw a year ago in many respects, but with better physical traits," Cristobal said Tuesday after practice. "He is healthy [now], which I think is a really important part. I don't think people really knew the extent of how banged up he was last year and we see the full speed player now. I am really excited about him."

"Jordan has taken strength and conditioning very seriously and he has certainly improved his change of direction and acceleration and deceleration rates," Cristobal added.

Jim Gaffigan says comedy audiences are tired of political drama and just want to laugh again

Comedian Jim Gaffigan revealed in an interview why he's mostly steering clear of politics in his stand-up material these days. Gaffigan told Variety that comedy fans don’t attend stand-up shows to hear lectures. They go to escape the real world and simply laugh at silly jokes. When the interviewer mentioned the recent crossover between comedy and politics, Gaffigan responded, "People are coming to a show to have a break from some of this drama. That’s not to say there aren’t great comedians who talk about social commentary. The spirit of George Carlin is very important."  And he recalled his political jokes after President Donald Trump's first election victory in 2016 not landing how he'd imagined. COMEDIAN DUSTY SLAY REVEALS HOW FAITH AND SOBRIETY PAVED THE ROAD TO HIS STAND-UP SUCCESS "I remember when Trump was first elected, and my opening act had some political jokes.

Prosecutors on Friday presented their final witness in the federal trial of Ryan Routh, accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club on Sept. 15, 2024. FBI Supervisory Special Agent Kimberly McGreevy testified about financial records, phone data, license plate readers and surveillance evidence that traced Routh’s movements from Hawaii to Florida ahead of the assassination attempt. McGreevy read aloud a handwritten note Routh allegedly left in a box at Lazaro Plata’s home in Greensboro, North Carolina. The note began: "Dear World, .. This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, but I am so sorry I failed you... it’s up to you now to complete the job." The letter also mentioned a $150,000 reward. McGreevy testified that bank transfers showed Routh had the money to pay that sum.
