On healthstatus, was using 16oz per beer (i.e., a pint). If I plug in 12 beers over two hours (at 200lbs), it hits a .21. https://www.healthstatus.com/perl/calculator.cgi.
If he was drinking for three hours, it may have been around 3 cans of beer an hour.

Anyway, the numbers were meant as a rough estimate because we don't know all of Reiley's makeup or what and how long he drank that night. This chart indicates it would be about 8 to 9 cans of beers over 2 hours (with the allowance of .01% reduction per 40 min).

I'm not diminishing the risks associated with drinking and driving at .15. It's not good. That's a lot of beer. But I'd wager a lot of people have drank that amount of alcohol (or equivalent a more typical 150 pounds student at 7 beers in 2 to 3 hours), in college and gone driving.
Again, DUI is bad. But it's not genocide and there's already hefty civil penalties for the offense. I'm not convinced football players should be required to suffer additional penalties.
