Several years ago we Googled "
player arrested" in Google News, and having come across that in going back to our archive to admire what three people a day read unintentionally we decided to Google it again -- and lo and behold we were not disappointed:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Connecticut freshman basketball player Nate Miles has been arrested on charges he violated a restraining order.
According to UConn Police arrest records, Miles was served with a restraining order on Sept. 22, but violated it by placing a phone call to the protected party that day. That person is not named.

Former Nebraska running back Thunder Collins was arrested Wednesday in Omaha, Neb., in connection with the Tuesday slaying of a man.
An arrest warrant issued Wednesday accuses Collins of first-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder. He also faces felony weapons charges.

University of Kentucky football player Ashton Cobb was arrested Friday on a warrant after his ex-girlfriend said he sent her several threatening text and voicemail messages, according to court records.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A suspended University of Central Oklahoma football player was free from Oklahoma County jail Wednesday after being arrested, accused of raping a 16-year-old girl.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the odd thing is, "player arrested" gets more hits than, say, "
executive arrested." Who'da thought?
