It's impossible to say if Britton will face the same struggles, but his almost happy-go-lucky attitude may well help him in pressure situations. He has already overcome the stigma associated with his three alcohol-related arrests in 2004. Those close to him say the \"new Britton Colquitt\" has matured in response to those legal issues.
averagedawg, guess this is another athlete that thinks he is above it all. Wonder where this particular arrest leaves him as far as the previous three arrests in 2004. We will watch this one. Phat Phil probably took care of that matter. Reminds me of the Jeremy Stevens article that was posted here. How many \"passes\" do they get.
Britton Colquitt, a punter on the University of Tennessee football team, was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident early this morning.
According to the Knox County Judicial Commissioner's Office, Colquitt, 22, hit a parked Ford Focus on Jackson Avenue near Humes Street at 2:56 a.m. today while driving a 1998 Jeep Cherokee, then fled the scene.
The Knoxville Police Department stopped Colquitt on Gill Avenue near Gratz Street. He admitted to having two beers, three mixed drinks, hitting the car and a tree stump, according to police records.
As I sit here at the computer I am having a whisky and soda. Very enjoyable, just finished with the Daytona 500. Not driving and drinking. Young man needs help.
