    According to the Orlando Sentinel, Florida has seen a staggering 27 arrests during Urban Meyer's five years in Gainesville. Meyer has received some criticism here and there, but for the most part, he's still revered as a two-time national champion coach. No one would suggest he's lost control of his program.

    Alabama's Nick Saban, the last guy anyone would ever accuse of running a loose ship, saw 10 of his players arrested during his first 18 months on the job. One player allegedly robbed two students at gunpoint; another was charged for allegedly dealing cocaine. (Both were dismissed from the team.) There was much hand-wringing at the time. Then the Crimson Tide started 12-0 the following fall, and we haven't heard much about their disciplinary problems again.

    Ohio State's Jim Tressel endured 14 player arrests in his first three-plus years on the job, yet it didn't seem to mar his reputation as a fatherly statesman who wins Big Ten titles. Penn State's program was the subject of an eviscerating Outside the Lines report in July 2008 that detailed 46 player arrests over a six-year period. Joe Paterno's team proceeded to win 11 games in each of the next two seasons, and everyone seems perfectly Happy in the Valley.
