Mountaineer player booted from team after allegedly robbing house while wearing WVU gear
By Christopher Wilson | Dr. Saturday – 9 hours ago

Korey Harris, a sophomore defensive lineman, is no longer with the West Virginia football team following an arrest for first-degree armed robbery.
Harris was arrested last Friday for a July 12 home invasion, where Harris and two others entered a Morgantown home and held the residents at gun point while burglarizing the house. One tiny flaw in Harris' plan: He was wearing his WVU-issued sweatpants with a #96 - his uniform number, as you can see above - on them. The three men got away with cash and electronics.
Harris is being held in North Central Regional Jail with bail set at $75,000. In April, head coach Dana Holgorsen announced that Harris was suspended from the team for spring semester.
Harris' bio is no longer on West Virginia's website and his name isn't listed on the official roster. When asked about Harris, WVU's director of football communications Mike Montoro told WBOY-TV, "We have no comment on individuals who aren't with the West Virginia Football program." The three-star Florida native played in 11 games last year as a true freshman, notching four tackles.
We have seen some dumb college football-related incidents so far this offseason - barking at a police dog and attempting a jail break with hedge trimmers, for example - but nothing that managed to mix the danger of armed robbery with the stupidity of wearing your uniform number during the crime quite like this.

Girlfriend of suspect in Stoops burglary attempts worst prison break ever
By Christopher Wilson | Dr. Saturday – Wed, Jul 10, 2013 10:44 AM EDT

The story around the robbery of Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops’ house has somehow gotten weirder, as the girlfriend of one of the suspects attempted a prison break last week.
According to a report from Jake Trotter at ESPN.com, Paige Maurey, 21, tried to bust the juvenile suspect in the Stoops burglary out of a detention center. Let’s try to figure out their plan together:
According to the affidavit, the juvenile called Maurey on July 2 from the Alan J. Couch detention center and asked her to help him escape. Maurey, three other male juveniles and one female then got a hedge trimmer and drove together to the detention center. Maurey gave the male juveniles bandanas to conceal their identities, then left to go get gas with the female juvenile, the affidavit said.

While Maurey was away, a detention center employee saw someone peeking around the corner of a building inside the fence. Once seen, that subject hopped the fence and ran off, leaving behind the hedge cutters, which the employee found.
Okay. Here is the street view of the detention center where the attempted breakout happened, but I’m assuming our suspects attempted to infiltrate from the rear of the building, seen here. I do not see a large amount of shrubbery, at least anything that would obviously get in the way of an attempted breakout, so were the suspects perhaps trying to use the tool to cut the fence? But if they were able to hop the fence, what were the trimmers for? An interior fence, perhaps? To attempt to break off a lock? Did they mistake hedge trimmers for bolt cutters at the store? Also, guy who was supposed to not lose the hedge trimmers: You had one job.
I’m also confused about the process by which they had time to get a hedge trimmer on their way to the attempted breakout but didn’t have time to get gas. “Should we keep the getaway car nearby in case something goes wrong?” “No, we’ve got these bandanas, they’ll protect us. You go fuel up.” “Okay, great plan.”
I am also very curious about how quickly this came together. I would love if the suspect called Maurey and she immediately put a team together and went to break him out with zero thought beyond "We have bandanas, now we just need hedge trimmers." Did the suspect suggest a plan or coordinate with her, or did he literally just say “Hey, can you help me break out of prison?” and she complied?
Maurey and all four juveniles were arrested for their trouble. Maurey, a regular Michael Scofield, was charged with a felony count of assisting a prisoner to escape. The juvenile suspect and Corey McCarty, 21, were charged with first-degree burglary last month for breaking into the home of the Sooners coach in Norman.

Florida linebacker arrested for barking at a police dog at 4:15 a.m.

Antonio Morrison, Florida's starting middle linebacker, was arrested in June for punching a bouncer at a club and shouting "I am Antonio!". Surely, Morrison would just rely on the legal wizardry of defense attorney Huntley Johnson and be on his best behavior all summer.
Not quite.
Last night Morrison, 19, was arrested for barking at a police dog. For real. That's a thing.
According to the police report, Morrison was a bystander outside a late-night Gainesville club when police responded to a disturbance at 4:15 a.m. Sunday morning. As the officers were making arrests, Morrison approached a canine named Bear sitting in the police car and started barking at it.
According to Sports Illustrated's Andy Staples, Bear is a Belgian Malinois Shepherd trained in drug detection and people tracking, so probably not the best animal to antagonize.
An officer on the scene stated Morrison's actions prevented the police from doing their job properly so he asked Morrison to step to the front of the vehicle. When the officer tried to detain Morrison with handcuffs, he resisted.
Morrison was charged with interfering with police by harassing a police animal and for resisting arrest/obstructing justice without violence. He appeared before a judge and was released from jail on Sunday morning.

On Tuesday, Florida head coach Will Muschamp said he had yet to decide on a punishment for Morrison for his arrest last month, so we'll have to find out how this latest incident factors in to his disciplinary decision. While barking at a police dog is pretty harmless as far as offseason indiscretions go, it's also really, really dumb, especially for a guy who was just arrested.
If Morrison is suspended a game for his summer adventures, it would be against Toledo in the Gators' home opener. Their second game is a road trip to face the Miami Hurricanes.
UPDATE: Morrison has been suspended for at least the first two games of the season, meaning he will not play against the Rockets or Hurricanes.

Ohio State suspends Carlos Hyde

ESPN.com news services | July 22, 2013

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Ohio State Buckeyes have suspended senior running back Carlos Hyde, projected by some to be among the top tailbacks in the nation this season, coach Urban Meyer announced Monday.

More from ESPN.com
Urban Meyer's stance on discipline with the Buckeyes is going to be widely known and surely better understood now. And he has two of his highest-profile players to thank for it, writes Austin Ward. Blog

Hyde, a bulldozing rusher who led the Buckeyes with 17 total touchdowns last season, is a person of interest in the investigation of an assault against a woman at a downtown Columbus bar, the Columbus Dispatch said.

Hyde has not been arrested or charged with a crime but was identified in a police report filed Saturday in Columbus.

Meyer said that Hyde is banned from all football activities as the school awaits the outcome from both a criminal investigation and a code of conduct investigation. The Dispatch, citing sources, reported earlier Monday that Hyde has been kicked off the team.

A source told ESPN's Brett McMurphy that there is surveillance video of the incident that's contrary to what is being reported.

"I have a clear set of core values in place that members of this football program are constantly reminded of and are expected to honor," Meyer said in the release. "There are also expectations with regard to behavior. I expect our players to conduct themselves responsibly and appropriately and they will be held accountable for their actions."

Carlos Hyde's rushing TDs last year matched the most in a single season for the Buckeyes going back to 2000.
