I've simply lost track at this point. Is it 15 Hawkeyes arrested in whatever time period now? 18?
Freshman DE Riley Reiff was arrested at 2:45 a.m. this morning. It was a custodial arrest, so he spent some time in jail.
Here's a link from ICPD:

I don't get it, either, guys.
From Scott Dochterman's story in The Gazette: "Police say it took nearly 20 minutes and eight officers to apprehend Reiff. He was observed to have bloodshot eyes and poor speech and balance. Reiff, who is from Parkston, S.D., refused to take a Breathalyzer test.
Since April 2007, 18 Iowa football players have been arrested, including five on felony charges."
OK, so it is 18.
This is more than a PAULA but not in the same ballpark as an OWI. What that means on the Kirk Ferentz scale of justice, I don't know.
