Player: Cooper Kerns
Team: Kansas – Football
Charges: Battery on an Officer, Obstruction, Possession of a Fake ID
Arrest Date: September 3, 2011

Police Report: Damn this is a shame… this kid is probably going to get kicked off the team for simply taking a piss in public. A police officer spotted Kerns in an alley early Saturday taking a leak and when the officer approached Kerns did not produce any identification when asked… and then as the officer was trying to cuff him Kerns struck the officer in the face and ran away only to be caught a short time later.

It’s been a tough first 18 months on the job for Wake Forest head basketball coach Jeff Bzdelik… so far four plater have left the program for a variety of reasons. Tony Woods was kicked off the team last April for beating his girlfriend, then Ari Stewart decided to transfer to USC, then Melvin Tabb was booted after being arrested on breaking and entering and fraud charges, and then Ty Walker will be suspended until December 10th for violating the schools student code of conduct.

And now today comes word that JT Terrell, the team’s second-leading scorer as a freshman last season, is resigning from the basketball team after being arrested for driving while impaired… after police found him passed out behind the wheel of his car with the engine running early Saturday morning. Don’t look now, but it’s looking like the Deamon Deacons have another losing season coming up. [via]
