Dunlap's Arrest Inexplicabl.

It's refreshing to see that star Florida defensive end Carlos Dunlap has been eating his vegetables and getting plenty of rest the week of one of the biggest games the Gators will ever play.

In his defense, according to the police report, at least he was sleeping in his car at 3:25 in the morning when police found him.

At this point, Dunlap is only charged with drunken driving. Perhaps there's an explanation. But in reading the Gainesville Police Department's account of Dunlap's arrest, it's difficult to imagine what that explanation might be.

Better yet, what's his explanation to Florida coach Urban Meyer going to be? What's his explanation to his teammates going to be?

Keep in mind this is not some second-string tight end we're talking about. This is Carlos Dunlap, the highest rated NFL prospect is the Gators' team, one of their top pass-rushers and the defensive MVP of last season's BCS National Championship Game.

Regardless of what happens with the legal process in this case, it's Fair to question Whether Dunlap genuinely gives one Hoot about this football program, about his teammates, about their quest to become one of the great Dynasties in college football history.
