Another Georgia Bulldog was pulled over while driving. But this situation may bedifferent from others.
Georgia Bulldogs freshman Sacovie White was arrested last week on suspicion of reckless driving. White, a native of Cartersville, Ga., who moved to Athens a few months ago, was cited by Clark County police in Athens late Saturday night for driving the wrong way. No alcohol or drugs, White was released on a $26 bond.
No additional information has been released at this time and the Georgia Bulldogs program has not released a statement regarding the situation.
Over the past 18 months, the Bulldogs program has been heavily criticized for “systemic issues” related to second-time driving offenses, and has seen some players jailed for various reasons behind the wheel. And while White’s arrest falls into this category, the arrest of a newcomer is a young man going the wrong way in a new town, rather than presenting cultural issues.
