OT: Most College Football Player Arrests by team since 2010
- Thread starter RC1978
- Start date
This article does a decent analysis of Washington State's lofty status. Worth reading.

One paragraph ...
"In summary, the 20 players have run afoul of the law during Leach’s tenure, but that list includes some pretty dumb college kid antics. Koepp was caught throwing rocks at a frat house. Toni Pole gave police false info when they responded to a noise complaint — dumb, but hardly malicious. McLennan stupidly waved a BB gun around. At least four players were arrested in incidents involving alcohol or underage drinking. One other (Kaufusi) had a weed problem."
Here's the Top 25
Here's how the Big Ten teams are ranked from the above list:
1) Iowa - 18 player arrests
2) MIchigan - 14
2) Purdue - 14
4) Nebraska - 12
4) Ohio State - 12
6) Penn State - 11
7) Illinois - 9
8) Indiana - 7
8) Michigan State - 7
10) Maryland - 6
Moves us up the list a bit, unfortunately.
What school systems and where did the 5 RU PLAYERS arrested today come from?
Actually, we'll probably be in the Top 10. Only need 6 to crack it... we've got 7 in the last year, I think.
If you are trying to assert that Florida doesn't have atrocious public schools, that's a fight you are going to lose.
Good show again, captain dumba$$. Please wipe the drool off your chin in public.

Nj.com has a story up now "players arrested under flood"
I did not click but they are obviously firing back at flood for things he said last week and are trying to get him fired... I wouldnt be surprised if these arrests today came from nj.com
Its time we fans fight back against these hack journalists and get them fired

Yep, WSU leads the nation. in case your interested here is a good summary, Pullman is a very small town ~ 25,000 pop and that total includes ~ 20,000 student enrollment.

If not here is a summary 20 of 31 have happened during Leach's tenure, 8 are/were his recruits. Of the 8 2 were booted
Thank heavens 0 this past year
Regardless of the severity, these arrests have been embarrassing to everyone associated with the University.

News Flash: Politi is calling for every coach who had a player arrested to be fired. Since there are not enough head coaches left, Steve Politi has been appointed Head Football coach at Rutgers University. Then immediately resigns because of personal incompetency.
It is a totally ridiculous article as all but 6 about of those players listed were from the last staff.
Leach's arrested players the he recruited who are still here included major crimes of
1 mip
2 minors frequenting a tavern
1 reckless driving
1 playing with an air soft gun in public
That is a pretty slow Saturday night in a town of 28,000 with 20,000 college students. Basically the cops have absolutely nothing to do in the summers when the 8000 permanent residents are the only ones around.
It took leach 3 year to unscrew the mess the last staff left them with. WSU has a pretty good shot at being pretty decent this year. They have everyone on the team back less a DT, QB, WR, and LB.
that doesn't count for the time 20% of MSU's starting lineup put on masks and beat the crap out of kids at an engineering dorm.. St. Dantonio kicked one kid off the team.. and made all of the starters run laps LOL.-sg
I do not think it is 7 in the last year. But maybe I am wrong. It was only 4 today (Johnson and the older Stephenson were no longer on the team). That would make it 5 or 6 in the last year, depending on whether you count the Minny QB - who had agreed to come to RU but had not actually matriculated yet, I do not think.
And before today RU had been in the 4 or fewer category, so today gets RU to no more than 8 ... 5 more gets RU to tied at 13 arrests, and in the top 25 ... that is 4 more beyond today, which could be a lot to anticipate. Top 10 requires 19 arrested players.
Hey, I am embarrassed for RU, and upset, of course. But let us be accurate, at least.
[Edit: My error ... I forgot about Peele ... add 1 to each of MY totals.]

I totally misread the list - was looking at the Top 10 in the Big Ten, not the overall Top 10.
I was counting the 5 today, plus Dailey, plus Nelson (who transferred to RU in January 2014 and was arrested in May)... is 7. Peele was also arrested last October, taking us to 8 in the last 12 months.
There was Larrow and Tejay Johnson in 2013, which brings us to 10 in the last 3 years, which would be 3rd in the Big Ten.

this is very important to read...to show that Rutgers is not alone and there are many incidents all over big boy college football....AND to show that Rutgers football isn't some magical unicorn land where bad apples don't land. The idea that was pushed that we were above it all and all these other schools are criminal has been destroyed
