Ouch. Five days before the big game. Hate to see players do this to themselves.

I find it hard to feel sorry for players that do that to themselves. He knew he has a big game coming.

Won't help his draft stock either.

His draft stock will be fine.

Wonder if Meyer will allow him to play this week?

If I had to guess...probably E.g. Brandon Spikes.

I'm sure he'll play this week.

He suspended Spikes for the Vandy game, a game they could very well win without him.

He may not start or play in the first quarter, but this guy is going to play.

I'm not saying I wouldn't suspend him, because I would.

I'm just trying to go over this in Urban Meyer's mind.

That'll cost him the 1st quarter of the game, or maybe the first series.

I was reading this and can't say I was shocked at all.

I even thought about posting about it but figured I'd wait around to see if anyone else would.

If Meyer doesnt suspend him for a full game, everybody will know exactly where Meyer's priorities are.

What an idiot. Im a Fla fan but thinks he needs to be suspended at least 1 game and maybe the 1st half of the bowl game they go to. I doubt this hurts his draft stock at all..I just cant believe he could be this stupid.

My guess is that all information will not be gathered by game time Saturday. He'll claim he wasn't drunk; he was tired or took cold medicine or something. And it'll go to court........in about a month and a half.

I think Meyer will announce after today's practice Dunlap is suspended indefinitely. Police report says they smelled alcohol, Carlos refused to blow. He fell asleep at a traffic light on a busy road. Well, not busy at 3am on Tuesday. No excuse for this dumb decision.

He better miss the game. There are some shady coaches out there, but even Pete Carroll would sit him down for this.
