When Will They Ever Learn?

Here's your latest Maryland Terrapins basketball news:

University of Maryland basketball player Chris McCray was arrested in College Park early Sunday morning after refusing to leave the scene of a fight and initially fleeing police, Prince George's County police said today.

McCray, who will be a senior this season, was charged with disturbing the peace, resisting arrest and escaping from custody, said Cpl. Diane Richardson, a police spokeswoman.

Seriously, when will these college athletes realize that behavior like this is bad not just for their own reputation, but for the university at large? If you get a free ride to play a high-profile sport, you should show your appreciation to the school by trying just a bit harder not embarass the school than the average student, whose exploits won't make it past the police blotter in the campus paper.
