A little more information on the incident involving Florida junior Dee Webb, one of the better prospects at the position in the 2006 draft class. As reported yesterday, police in Gainesville reportedly found a loaded Smith & Wesson .38-caliber revolver and a Mossberg 12-gauge shotgun in a vehicle owned by Webb when they were investigated shots being fired at a local apartment building. It now appears today that police are investigating Webb as the possible shooter in an incident after a witness told police he saw Webb, who appeared to be carrying a small gun case, and three other unidentified men walking nearby after he heard a few shots. When police arrived in the area, they reportedly discovered a shell casing behind Webb's apartment; they also found an AR-15 rifle on the living room floor. Webb reportedly arrived shortly afterward with several companions and told police they had been at a Florida football banquet earlier in the evening. At that point, the scene appears to have turned a tad comical. According to a report in the Gainesville Sun, Webb, according to police, appeared intoxicated. He told officers the guns belonged to him and repeatedly asked police to take him to jail. According to police, Webb reportedly told police “he was going to be a millionaire soon…that he had a million-dollar career waiting for him in the NFL and his lawyers would clear him of this". Webb also reportedly also told police to handcuff him several times, however, there are still no formal charges against him so police declined. At the same time, though, Webb reportedly did tell officers that he didn't have any knowledge of anyone using the guns. And however it all ends up, its not likely that the incident will be included as Exhibit A in the NFL’s handbook on how to prepare for a “million-dollar’ career in the pros!

Same story for Boise State DB Cam Hall, who has entered a modified guilty plea to a charge of leaving the scene of an accident in which three members of a Boise family died last year. In exchange, prosecutors dropped a reckless driving charge. Hall is also reportedly requesting a withheld judgment, which would result in removal of the felony from his record if he meets conditions set by a judge, a condition supported by the prosecutor. The maximum penalty for leaving the scene of an accident is five years, however, Hall, a second-tier prospect for the 2006 draft, is expected to get probation. Hall originally faced involuntarily manslaughter charges, which were dropped in October. Hall will be sentenced April 10th. In the incident, Hall and another man were racing when the other man’s truck smashed into the victim’s family car. Hall was able to avoid the car, but didn't stop. He later called his football coach to tell him about the accident. Hall took himself off the Boise State roster following the accident, but was reinstated after two games; however, he also missed the Broncos bowl game after being declared academically ineligible.
