Gophers DB Carter arrested, will play
MINNEAPOLIS(AP) -- Minnesota defensive back Michael Carter will be
allowed to play against Illinois despite his arrest this week
outside a campus pizza parlor.

Minnesota coach Tim Brewster said Tuesday that the matter is
being handled internally and that the freshman will play against
Illinois.

Carter was arrested early Monday and charged with obstructing
the legal process and underage consumption. Police say Carter
and a teammate were trying to pick a fight.

Police say Carter resisted officers' attempts to pat him down
despite being told by several teammates to cooperate. No other
players were charged.

Carter has a hearing scheduled for Nov. 19.
