Star OSU WR Blackmon gets DUI

Whoopsies...should not have been going 92 in a 60 after crushing beers.


Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon has been arrested on a driving under the influence complaint in Carrollton, Texas, early Tuesday morning.

Blackmon, who is not 21 years old, and three friends were returning to Oklahoma after attending the Dallas Cowboys game in Arlington, Texas, when they were pulled over for going 92 mph in a 60 mph zone, the Tulsa World reported. Former Oklahoma State wide receiver Dez Bryant plays for Dallas.

"There were field sobriety tests given on the side of the road," Dustin Bartram, the public information officer for the Carrollton Police Department, said, according to the newspaper, which first reported the story. "The officer determined that there was a detectable amount [of alcohol] on [Blackmon]."

In Texas, if authorities deem that a minor has been drinking any alcohol and driving, that person is considered to be driving under the influence.

Blackmon posted a $375 bond and was released at 8:06 a.m. CT. The passengers in the car were not arrested.

Blackmon is having a huge year on the field for the Cowboys (No. 17 BCS, No. 20 AP). The sophomore has 62 receptions for 1,112 yards and 14 touchdowns.

Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy is expected to address the media later Tuesday. The Cowboys face Kansas State in a Big 12 battle on Saturday.

I guess he must have had a couple of drinks at the game.

Yeah, or 12

Regardless off how many drinks he had be it a little or a lot they should have had someone be a designated driver.

See kids-you should go to SMU so you don't have drive 200 miles at 90 MPH just to see the Cowboys, Mavs or Rangers on a school nite
