Usually we don’t cover every arrest of every former SEC football player (because there aren’t enough hours in the day).

But this story is a little different.

Danny Ware, former Georgia running back and current New York Giant, was arrested for being a “pedestrian under the influence” last month, when he was back in town for the UGa-Alabama game.

Old news, right?  Well, we’ve just gotten a look at the mugshot from that arrest and it has to be a point of embarrassment for the University.

Check out the Georgia stickers on Ware’s face.  Think that photo won’t “somehow” find it’s way into the hands of potential recruits’ parents? 

It’s called negative recruiting.  It happens.  And having one of your former players arrested while wearing school-logo stickers on his face is probably just the kind of weapon that rival recruiters are looking for… especially if your school has had a string of arrests involving CURRENT players (as Georgia has).
