Report: Alabama Cornerback Geno Smith Arrested, Charged With DUI

Nick Saban can’t be too happy, but Rex Ryan must be ecstatic.

Geno Smith was arrested on Saturday night. Only it’s not the Geno Smith you’re probably thinking of.

Smith, a sophomore cornerback at Alabama and not the New York Jets rookie quarterback, was arrested and charged with a DUI late Saturday night, according to Cecil Hurt of the Tuscaloosa News.

The arrest is bad news for Alabama’s defense as Saban and the Tide enter the 2013 season eyeing a third straight national title, but it’s good news for Ryan and the Jets, who will be happy to avoid another Mike Goodson-esque arrest fiasco.
