General News Texas WR Buckner to transfer after arrest |
Austin, TX (Sports Network) - University of Texas wide receiver Dan Buckner has decided to transfer in the wake of his arrest early Thursday morning.
According to the Austin Statesman, Buckner was arrested in College Station, Texas, following an argument with an ex-girlfriend in her apartment complex.
The paper cites an affidavit saying that Buckner was told to leave the apartment and the apartment complex itself by the local police department, and finally that he would be arrested if he did not leave.
Buckner was eventually taken into custody after allegedly telling one officer that they should take him to jail.
As a sophomore this past season, the Allen, Texas native posted 44 receptions for 445 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games.
Texas head football coach Mack Brown was quoted in the paper as saying Buckner and his family assured him of no wrongdoing, but that he and Buckner's family agreed a transfer was the best option going forward.
