Including QB Tommy Rees...

"Notre Dame quarterback Tommy Rees was pepper-sprayed and arrested early Thursday after he allegedly ran from away from an off-campus party and knocked the wind out of a police officer who caught up to him" (That's a potential felony charge, folks... Rees lucked out!)

"A probable cause affidavit says the 6-2, 210-pound Rees continued to resist even after being knocked down by police Officer Brandon Stec, so Stec used pepper spray and was finally able to subdue him with the help of other officers."

"Police Capt. Phil Trent said linebacker Carlo Calabrese tried to talk to police, asking them why they don't like Notre Dame. Trent said Calabrese eventually grew angry and twice told officers: "My people will get you."

"The 19-year-old Rees was charged with one count of battery, two counts of resisting law enforcement and one count of illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor. Police had filed a preliminary charge of felony battery on a police officer, which would have required him to stay in jail until being arraigned before a judge."

Calabrese sounds pretty intelligent as well:

"Trent said police arrested the 21-year-old Calabrese after he became angry when it became clear Rees was being arrested. Trent said Calabrese asked police, "Why aren't you a Notre Dame supporter," and "Why are you doing this to my teammate," before eventually uttering his warning."

"I have no idea what that means but it's obviously some sort of threat," Trent said."

Not nearly the coverage on this Oregon has received the last couple seasons... Maybe it's the absence of a laptop, or is it Notre Dame's irrelevance coming home to roost?

Gotta love the off-season.

Great posts all around like this one "Poor Tommy, he is still too slow to escape from tackling officers:("

I'm surprised Rees couldn't out-run the cops. I'll tell you this, the cops wouldn't have caught Bennett.
