KATU: Evan Stewart Allegedly Booked on DUII Charge

Well, this is about the last thing Oregon needed right now.

Obviously, we should wait for all the facts to come out, but if this report is accurate, it's incredibly disappointing. These guys have every resource imaginable available to them to avoid getting behind the wheel after drinking. At some point, personal responsibility has to matter.

Hopefully nobody was hurt, and I expect Lanning and the program to handle it appropriately once they have all the facts.

Another teaching moment!

"Several UO players arrested"? Would like to know more about that.

If true, it would explain the season.

Does this bring into question Lannings control of this team?

"Springfield Police told The Oregonian/OregonLive on Sunday that online rumors of street racing involving Oregon football players were unfounded, and that several Oregon players were contacted by police early Sunday morning because they were in the area of a separate pursuit.

That pursuit, which resulted in Springfield Police discovering an abandoned vehicle, was unrelated to Stewart's alleged DUII arrest. Springfield PD is no longer pursuing the case involving the abandoned vehicle, an official said."

Get injured get drunk?

Dakorian bailed Stewart out yesterday. Jamari, Mesiah Hampton and three others were racing. Hampton got away…the others arrested is what is reported.

Idiots. I would suspend all for the Illinois game. Time for life lessons.

This team has issues. They sound like USC. Enough is enough!

Where is this reported? Everything you stated other than J-Stew was just the rumors flying around yesterday.

I'm hearing everything beyond the Stewart arrest is all smoke no fire. Sometimes where there's smoke, there's someone smoking.

Springfield police don't agree with your street racing speculation.

Go talk to the kids.

This wired (un)social media world takes what may be a fact and turns it into a legion of troubles and worries. This is not new for our species; gossip doesn't need an accelerator.

It's children playing the game of Telephone.

And the media that used to be a guardian of reporting the truth simply wants to be the first to report and damn the consequences.

All of the above may be true, but get the facts; facts are inconvenient things.

Does Kirby Smart have control of his Georgia team?

What punishment does Dan Lanning give to Evan Stewart? Nothing, if we use the example of Rashaad Samples with his DUI from last summer. These players, especially the stars make a lot of NIL money. He had choices, take a cab, take an uber.

He has already seriously damaged his draft value. Next man up IMHO.

More coming!
