Speaking of information:
Tony Joiner is arrested for felony theft for deciding to go get his girlfriends car out of a tow lot without anyones permission at 4 am. Joiner was a captain when it happened, but Meyer stripped him of that (oooooooh, take that! all youre gonna do is steal back your GFs car? thats not the kind of leadership we need here!). He didnt miss any playing time.
Torrey Davis is arrested for a misdemeanor driving with a suspended license. Repeatedly. Was considered to be in the dog house and ended up in jail.
Riley Cooper got cited for a misdemeanor resisting arrest and failure to comply with cops requests. No one knows if Cooper got punished at all. You know my guess.
Carl Johnson got on a bus with his ex-girlfriend, who had a restraining order out against the dude. Misdemeanor violation there, as he had been accused of 3 counts of date rape. He never missed time, as the case was dropped.
Dawayne Grace faced charges of misdemeanor battery and theft. The first time. The second time he got busted for midemeanor violation of a city ordinance and disorderly conduct, and he did community service. SHOCKING HEADLINE OF THE YEAR: Urban actually suspended him. For the year. (Hmmmm, wonder why he gets the book thrown at him, while other guys dont
.could it be, maybe, playing time? I mean, Brandon Spikes got a half game right? Hmmmmm
.)
Jon Demps drove with a suspended license as well. Then he got busted for possession of the Weed. Booted from the team after the second violation.
Louis Murphy liked the happy weed too, and got busted for having it on his person. He was suspended for 3 games.
Brandon James got busted while buying the happy weed, which is a felony. And of course he had some on him, so he got the misdemeanor possession too. Meyer suspended James for a, SHOCKING, single entire game. Against Western Kentucky.
John Curtis violated his probation by skipping out on community service. This is a misdemeanor as well. Curtis didnt play much, but had been hurt anyway.
Dorian Munroe got busted for felony theft when he pulled a boot off his car. HA. That one is just funny. Nothing came down from Meyer on this one.
The Serious
Avery Atkins was charged with misdemeanor domestic battery of his girlfriend/baby mama. Also charged with felony false imprisonment. Meyer suspended him.
Dustin Doe got involved in a big old fight and then got busted for misdemeanor resisting arrest. Charges were eventually dropped, so nothing from Urban.
Jermaine Cunningham got busted for misdemeanor battery for beating up a guy behind the counter at a Jimmy Johns. On a personal note, thats just wrong! How do you go after a dude that serves you such a delicious sandwich? Anyway, Cunningham missed no time, and played in the Capital One bowl. Meyer imposed physical punishment. Yeah, man, you cant beat up sandwich dudes! Were coming down HARD on you. What? No, of course youll play in the bowl game. But you dont get the free watch, and you gotta run some LAPS! So take that!
Jacques Rickerson got busted for having the weed on him to rack up a nice lil misdemeanor. Those charges were dropped, so of course just a 1 game suspension punishment from Meyer. But then the guy got caught for felony domestic violence by strangulation. DUDE STRANGLED HIS GIRL. And, just to top it off, felony obstruction of justice. Meyer booted him from the team, because at that point he just didnt have a choice. Sorry kid, I really wish I didnt have to.
Cam Newton got busted for all kinds of felonies. Burglary. Larceny. Obstruction of justice. He was suspended for the rest of the season. If he had only just gotten the 1 burglary charge, he probably couldve stuck around, but
Marquis Hannah got busted for felony burglary and misdemeanor battery for busting his way into a home and punching a dude in the face while trying to gank some stuff. No punishment to date.
Janoris Jenkins was busted for misdemeanor fighting and resisting arrest for his part in a fight outside a club, late night. This one isnt as bad as some of the others in terms of what he did, but hes a pretty big time player for them so I slotted it in here. No punishment so far.
The Ridiculous
Jamar Hornsby throws a dude onto the hood of a car during a fight and gets a misdemeanor property damage and criminal mischief charge. No punishment for this one from Urban. Later in his UF career, his best friends girlfriend dies and he helps him clear her things out of her aparment. Awwww, what a nice guy! Wait, wait
.because THEN, Jamar goes around using her credit card for a few months, charging up 70 different things on a dead girls credit card. Thats a felony, along with misdemeanor larceny of a credit card. And, really, its just cold. Urban brings in guys with great character I tell you, GREAT character. Jamar got booted from the team.
Ronnie Wilson. Ronnie Wilson. Wow. Wilson got busted for aggravated assault, battery and use of/display of a concealed weapon during commission of a felony when he busted out his AK-FREAKING-47 in the middle of a fight. Yes, AK-47 folks. Wilson was suspended from the team for the 2007 season. Wow! Urban takes a stand, right? Right? Ah, nope. Because Wilson was ALLOWED BACK ON THE TEAM NEXT SEASON. Seriously. For real. Then, shockingly, he got busted for marijana possession and a count of battery and a count of assault. And after all that, he was finally permanently kicked off the team.
The last straw: Just last week, when a blatant attempt to blind a guy got punished by a HALF GAME SUSPENSION.
