That is what I expected. I have been where Mr. Hammond is right now as well have alot of people. Thankfully nobody was hurt and hopefully he learns a lesson. I have a small feeling he will be in great shape this season due to some increased conditioning.

According to a tweet from Brady Ackerman, Hammond worked out with the team today for the first time since his DUI arrest.

Once I see more news, I'll update this post. :gator:

"Florida Gators redshirt sophomore wide receiver Frankie Hammond, Jr. will plead guilty to driving under the influence after being arrested on June 13, according to Jeremy Fowler of the Orlando Sentinel, who spoke with Hammond’s attorney, Huntley Johnson.

Johnson believes Hammond will serve a minimum sentence as he is a first-time offender and has admitted to his mistakes.

“I think [our plea] will be accepted,” Johnson told the Sentinel. “He’ll get the same treatment as somebody else [former defensive end Carlos Dunlap]."

"Johnson said Hammond's parents have confiscated his car to avoid any future issues.

"He made a mistake, and it's one I'm willing to bet he won't repeat," Johnson said."
