Well it looks like I was wrong regarding the collapse of the Big 12. While Colorado and Nebraska bolted for other conferences, the big boys (mainly Texas and Oklahoma) appear to have ended their flirtation with the Pac-10. Hopefully this marks the end of conference realignment for the remainder of this offseason.Probably won't have any significant posts prior to the weekend, but I figured I'd continue the college crime blotter. The SEC is representing!
Arkansas FB Van Stumon was charged with drunken driving after police saw him drive over a curb and into a parking lot.
Florida WR Frankie Hammond Jr. was charged with drunken driving and subsequently suspended from team activities after he was arrested for driving over 45mph in a 20mph zone on the University of Florida campus. In addition to speeding, Hammond Jr. was allegedly swerving and had two open bottles of whiskey in his car.
I'm pretty sure most SEC teams recruit players using Marion Barry as a kind of godlike template. "Hooked on blow? Check. Prone to embarrassing drunk driving episodes? Check. Recruit that kid!"
