Just yesterday it came out that Florida offensive lineman, Ronnie Matthew Wilson, was arrested and is accused of shooting off a gun during a dispute in a club.
Wilson, 19, has been suspended from team activities, coach Urban Meyer said. Wilson was charged with aggravated assault, simple battery and the use or display of a concealed weapon during the commission of a felony, according to jail records.
Well, that’s not the first time a Gator was in the news this week — and not for winning the national title, nor for entering the NBA draft. On Monday, Florida linebacker Dustin Doe (pictured) was charged for fighting in public…
for his involvement in a large brawl in a downtown Gainesville parking garage.
Police responded to the scene at 2:25 a.m Sunday, and Doe was observed fighting in a group of 20 or more people. According to police reports, Doe and two others were arrested.
This is certainly a nice way for Urban Meyer’s Gators to celebrate their BCS title. I guess they’re getting in shape for Spring Practice. Thanks to JS for the alert.

Percy Harvin was a USC verbal when Urban convinced mom that Gainsville was so much safer than the area surrounding Trojanville.
Yeah, I know USC has had it’s own problems with players running amok of the law, but Meyer better check his own house before he badmouths another school’s situation to parents of recruits.
Then again, sounds like the Gators could use one of USC’s fix-it lawyers.
What? No one has made a Bengals or Colts joke about this yet? I’m disappointed.
Seriously, that’s usually my territory too.
