N.C. State football player Logan Winkles was arrested Saturday in Raleigh. He is the second N.C. State athlete in seven weeks to be charged with drinking and driving in Raleigh, but court sources agreed he had the cuter name.
“I think if this goes to a jury trial, we’re totally effed,” an unnamed source said. “On the other hand, we’ve got Staats Battle over a barrel. Good luck trying to get the women in the jury box to shed tear one over that name.”
Winkles recently appeared with N.C. State coach Dave Doeren and 2011 “American Idol” winner Scotty McCreery during ESPN’s “College GameDay” festivities. Winkles and Doeren played the guitar while McCreery sang a Johnny Cash song and Kirk Herbstreit blew in a jug.
“We are aware of this unfortunate situation and will await the outcome of the university’s disciplinary processes before we determine what action to take or comment further,” Doeren said in a statement released by the school. It is unknown if the statement referred to the DUI or making an ass of yourself on national television.
