Corn's top WR gets busted

[Buffnik]

From the AP:

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska's top receiver is suspected of committing his second alcohol-related offense in 14 months.

Lincoln police ticketed Niles Paul on suspicion of alcohol possession by a minor and urinating in public.

Police spokeswoman Katie Flood said an officer spotted the 20-year-old Paul urinating on a fence at 1:23 a.m. Friday. A preliminary breath test measured Paul's blood alcohol at .104.

Nebraska coach Bo Pelini said Tuesday in a statement he met with Paul and that the matter "has been addressed and handled internally."

Paul was suspended for the balance of spring practice in April 2009 after his arrest on suspicion of drunken driving. Paul was not charged with DUI. He pleaded guilty to reckless driving and being a minor in possession of alcohol.

Hopefully the young man gets things straightened out. Lots of talent that could go to waste. Kind of like a certain CU wide receiver, eh? I guess neither of us can talk smack on this topic in 2010. Maybe it's a good sign. This type of stuff seemed to be happening to both of us a lot back when we were in the top 10 just about every year in the late 80s through the early 2000s.

Wow that's incredible. It's illegal to pee outside in Nebraska? Who would have thunk that? Do the rest of them know?

Maybe we just need a permanent thread on "stupid things that college athletes do to mess up their lives."
Seems like another one every week does something so dumb, somewhere...

I agree. I am sure Bo will make sure that he pays either by being suspended x amount of games, or running him in practices until he drops.

That'll show him!

I'll never know why it's illegal to piss outside.

MUOWI- minor urinating outdoors while intoxicated.

The PD throws the book at him for that? Bastages. Was he peeing on a cop car? Atleast he had the sense not to be driving.

He'll probably miss the University of Southern Missouri-Roulla Nurses School game. But that will be about it.
