Did anyone else consider how these arrests, especially Wardlow, will do to national respect for the program? Just a few weeks ago, Antonio Wardlow was the face of the SEC, now he is making bail. I know these three are probably very remorseful, but with his SI cover, this makes it more worse to me.

I think we should blame this all on the SI curse. LOL :)

I think it is officially Fulmers 71st players to be put in jail. Incredible. Arkansas has there problems, but not 71 prisoners worth.

comparing fulmer's track record to the fabulous and great recruiting at arkansas is like apples to oranges. how does UT compare to FSU, Miami, Florida, UGA, Ohio State, ND would be a better comparison.

So you admit that recruiting great athletes = recruiting criminals. Whatever it floats your boat...

Time will tell i guess. I think Fulmer might have 6 or so years on Nutt, but Nutt has like 60 fewer prisoners to play for him.

Kids getting in trouble for drinking and getting rowdy downtown is different then being labeled as criminals. Bar fights aren't felonies. And was just kiddin' about Nutt. But will tell you this. With the spot light comes scrutiny. You will get it and your kids will start making the news.

FSU, the "U" and FL all have had recent troubles, I don't think ND or OSU (besides Clarrett) has had that much trouble. Not sure about my FL comment though.

Was talking about being labeled as one. Using the above definition you home grown boy Clinton should be behind bars without parole.

GoHoGsGo06, Tennessee does have some players who have problems, but tell me, which Southern college does not??? Florida(Marcus Thomas just got kicked out), Georgia, Auburn, FSU, LSU and your Arkansas which one does not?

The problem is if the school itself is for those players? Tennessee hs been always responsible for those problems. ie. Lee Smith, very good TE we recruited last year got kicked out before this season because of drunk driving.

Let me tell you who recruit criminals: Miami FL. The infamous tradition from Michael Irvin to this year. 18 players commited assault on the football field just got suspended for 1 game! Not only did Miami FL not recruit criminals, they also unleash criminals

"2. guilty of crime"

If they are found guilty in court, then and only then do they become criminals.

FAYETTEVILLE, AR - Arkansas free safety Michael Grant has turned himself into authorities in Washington County for allegedly failing to take care of a traffic ticket.

Grant was booked Monday night and released on a bond of $1,280.

West Fork police say Grant was ticketed for speeding and reckless driving July 23 on Interstate 540 near West Fork. He was given two different court dates but police say he didn't appear for either so he was notified that he had to turn himself in.

Grant has a court date November 7 on a failure to appear charge.

Still in the Deep South, who couldn't love a player who's not only a kicker, not only a walk-on kicker, not only a drunk driving walk-on kicker, but an underage drunk driving walk-on kicker?:

Police pulled over S te phen Arnold, 1 8, on Sunday night after seeing his vehicle weave. Police said Arnold failed a field sobriety test and had a blood-alcohol content of .14 percent. Under Arkansas law, blood-alcohol content of .08 percent is the threshold for being leg all y drunk. The legal drinking age is 21.

Arnold was released on $880 bond and has a Feb. 27 court appearance in Fayetteville.

He kicked one extra point for Arkansas last season.​
Arnold is Arkansas' second drunk-driving kicker in the Nut t Er a - he can s tart a supp ort group with Todd Latourette while SMQ begins an in-depth academic study of social pressures leading to alcoholism among white male college st udent s who are kickers in Fayetteville.

Football player arrested for public intox
By: Josh Tinker, Sports Editor
Issue date: 4/20/05 Section: News

Razorback football player Jared Hicks was arrested Monday morning by the West Fork Police Department and charged with public intoxication, according to a report from the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
Hicks was booked at 11:24 a.m. Monday, according to the report. The WFPD had not filed a report on Hicks' arrest by Tuesday afternoon.

A spokesperson for the WFPD said the arresting officer was on a period of regularly scheduled time off and that a report would be filed by Thursday.
Hicks was booked and immediately released on a "misdemeanor cited," said Jack Kimbell, public information officer for the Washington County Sheriff's Office.

"He was released with a citation," Kimbell said.
Hicks is scheduled to appear in court April 26.
Hicks played in 10 games last season, starting eight. He finished the season with eight receptions for 98 yards and two touchdowns.

Houston Nutt, Arkansas coach, could not be reached for comment. He was out of town with his father, who recently had a stroke.

Kevin Trainor, director of Sports Information, said yesterday he didn't know if Hicks would be suspended from the football team.

"In light of the status with Houston and his father, there is not status on Jared Hicks," Trainor said. "I don't know [if he'll be suspended]. That's Coach Nutt's call. Being the offseason, that hasn't been dealt with."

Trainor said he did not want to speculate on Nutt's decision.
Former Razorback basketball player Mike Jones was also detained by UAPD early Tuesday morning and held on a warrant out of Benton County.

Jones was detained by UAPD for a warrant for failure to appear in court. Jones was supposed to appear in court after receiving a citation for driving the wrong way on a one-way street, said Ashley Ingram, a secretary in the warrants department of the Benton County Sheriff's Office. Ingram said she did not know the date of the incident.

Lt. Gary Crain, the UAPD public information officer, was out of his office Tuesday and could not be reached for comment.

Jones played in 23 games last season, starting four. He averaged 4.0 points per game, before missing the majority of the second half of the season with a groin injury.

Tired of looking, but I found all those in just the first 5 pages of a simple google search.

Of course with the word "arrested" the current Vols' arrest was listed as well as Alabama, Mississippi State, Arkansas State, Ohio U., (17 players plus 1 coach during 9 months), UMass, Texas Tech, LSU strength coach, Kansas State, Arkansas-Ft. Smith, etc
