Dunlap earns next award, DUI

Florida’s All-American (not All-Academic) defensive end Carlos Dunlap did about the stupidest act one could do prior to the SEC championship game.

Around 3:25 a.m. today, Gainesville police arrested Dunlap and booked him into the Alachua County jail on charges of DUI. Apparently, late Monday night, an eye-witness saw someone driving recklessly in the area. The police dispatched an officer into the area and subsequently found the parked Chrysler that matched the witnesses’ description stopped at a green light at an intersection near 200 SW 34th St. in Gainesville. The officer found Dunlap behind the wheel sleeping and snoring away. The officer hesitantly woke Dunlap who ultimately refused to submit to a breath test which led to his arrest.

If Dunlap is suspended and without him in the line-up, it opens a vulnerable spot for the Gators’ defense. Fortunately for Dunlap, his future is in the hands of Urban Meyer and the University of Florida–and we all know how the school treats its marquee athletes.

Dunlap, though you did a stupid thing, we will see you suited up this Saturday.
