Breaking: Notre Dame WR Michael Floyd Arrested for DUI

According to a report on ESPN.com this morning, Notre Dame Fighting Irish wide receiver Michael Floyd was apparently arrested on campus Sunday morning and charged with driving under the influence.

Not good timing for the returning senior just three days before spring practice was scheduled to get underway.

It's not the first time Floyd has had a run in with law enforcement. In January of 2010, he was cited in Minneapolis, Minnesota for underage drinking after police said he and former Minnesota Golden Gophers running back Shady Salamon had been involved in a fight in a car.

Floyd became the Notre Dame's all time leader in touchdown receptions (28) last year, passing Jeff Samardzija, finished with the second most receptions in a single season (79) behind former Irish wide receiver Golden Tate, and set school records with 5.7 catches and 84.6 yards per game in 2010.
