Police -- Georgia's Nitro Tuggle driving 107 mph before arrest - ESPN

Georgia wide receiver Nitro Tuggle was driving 107 mph before he was stopped and arrested by police on March 19, according to an Athens-Clarke County Police Department incident report.

Tuggle, a sophomore from Goshen, Indiana, was clocked driving 42 mph over the speed limit on the Georgia State Route 10 Loop outside Athens. He was driving a 2021 Dodge Charger and his girlfriend was in the car, according to the report.

The arrest report indicated there were other motorists on the highway and that Tuggle stopped his vehicle in the right lane, rather than the shoulder, when police pulled him over.

«I instructed Tuggle to exit the vehicle, at which point he nearly exited without placing the vehicle in park,» the report said. «Due to his reckless disregard for the safety of others — including himself, his passenger, other motorists, and myself — by operating the vehicle at a speed 42 mph over the limit and exceeding triple-digit speeds, I placed him under arrest.»

Tuggle was charged with misdemeanor reckless driving and speeding.

Georgia coach Kirby Smart suspended Tuggle and freshman offensive lineman Marques Easley from the team indefinitely on March 20.

Easley, from Peoria, Illinois, was arrested in Oconee County (Georgia) on March 17 after wrecking his Dodge Charger into a power distribution box in an apartment complex and causing damage to other cars.

On Tuesday, Smart called the team's latest traffic arrests «disappointing.»

«You know, both of them are younger players and have made crucial mistakes,» Smart told reporters. «As far as the process we followed, it's not been several months. You know, it's been several years in terms of defensive driving courses, having players ride and learn how to drive, just like my two
