Dec. 02, (THAINDIAN NEWS) In a recent development that has put the Florida Gators in a tricky position, Carlos Dunlop, the defensive end has been charged with DUI. The Florida star was arrested and released later. This incident has put both his team as well as Urban Meyer, its coach, in serious problem. The team is going to face a crisis in the upcoming match where it is pitted against Alabama. According to the sources, the layer was found lying unconscious behind his Chrysler’s wheels at 3:25 a.m. After the cops took him for interrogation he failed to clear a sobriety test and also declined to undergo a breathalyser test.
Now everybody’s attention is on how the coach will deal with the issue ahead of the critical game. Meyer ran into a controversy after suspending Brandon Spikes, the star linebacker, for an eye gouging fiasco. If he acts leniently and allows Dunlap to walk away scot free after this development, public opinion will go against him. The Florida spokespersons are tight-lipped and do not want to make any official statement regarding the latest developments on this aspect.
The coaches involved with College football have an infamous track record of overlooking grave transgressions for emerging winner in key games. Dunlap is among the top players of the Gators. He is quite versatile and slips into more than one position in a game efficiently. DUI is a serious accusation and the team officials will not take Dunlap’s decision to drink and pass out in midnight in a casual manner.
