Dunlap is said to be one of the team's best NFL prospects, but now coaches and the team are a little uncertain how to handle things, considering the Southeastern Conference title game is Saturday. Questions are definitely being asked as to what Coach Urban Meyer will do about the star player's arrest.

For now, the Gators camp is keeping quiet: “We are aware of the incident and are currently gathering information,” a spokesman said this morning via The New York Times. An announcement is expected for later today.
