Georgia’s soccer program is the most effective within the nation over the previous 5 years. The Bulldogs, who gained back-to-back nationwide championships, have developed into a real powerhouse underneath head coach Kirby Sensible. That is extraordinarily clear.
However one thing else is evident: Georgia has a driving downside.
On Sunday, Bulldogs large receiver Sacovie White, a freshman, was arrested for “reckless driving” tied to one-way roadway points.
“Per his arrest report, White was booked into the jail at 3:04 a.m., posted a $26 money bond 16 minutes later and was launched precisely one hour later at 4:04 a.m,” On3 reported on Sunday morning.
Sadly, White is way from the one Bulldogs participant to have points on the street. On-line Athens reported earlier this yr that this system has had not less than 14 totally different arrests or citations on account of driving points since a January 2023 deadly crash involving offensive lineman Devin Willock and recruiting staffer Chandley LeCroy. Police stated that extreme pace and alcohol possible performed a task within the crash.
Sunday morning’s arrest is way much less critical, clearly. Nevertheless, it is the most recent in a protracted string of driving incidents involving the Georgia soccer program.
“With a lot altering in Faculty Soccer, it is good to have one thing fixed,” Reddit’s Faculty Soccer account joked on Sunday afternoon.

Sensible, in the meantime, has addressed the difficulty on a number of events, although it nonetheless continues to occur.
“I really feel like our gamers are beginning to have the ability to acknowledge and so they perceive once you make errors, selections which can be pricey can price you your life,” Sensible stated in March 2023. “That’s to not be taken calmly. I feel our guys perceive that and we proceed to teach them and we’ll proceed to do all we are able to as a college to ensure they behave and try this in a correct means.”
Sensible would possibly perceive the issue, nevertheless it would not appear to be it is stopping the incidents from taking place. Maybe one thing else wants to alter.
