The Georgia Bulldogs are hungry for another national championship. They fell short last year after losing to their arch-rival Alabama last season. Head coach Kirby Smart has brought in another top recruiting class and landed some quality pieces in the transfer portal. One of those pieces, running back Trevor Etienne, has found himself in some hot water. He was arrested early this morning on four misdemeanor charges related to driving.

Etienne is the brother of Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne. He played for the Flordia Gators last year but was part of the mass exodus of players from the program. The star running back decided on the Bulldogs. On Sunday morning, he was arrested on four charges: driving under the influence of alcohol, reckless driving, failure to maintain lane, and affixing materials that reduce the visibility from windows and/or windshield. He posted bail and was released an hour later.
2024 Outlook
How much does this affect the Bulldogs? This team has plenty of talent and a coach with a track record of success. There is also no word on what type of punishment Etienne will receive from either the team or the conference. However, whatever happens, the Bulldogs will have plenty of talent to make a run in the SEC. Texas and Oklahoma joined the SEC, making it tougher for them to win the conference.
The Georgia Bulldogs will be in the mix for a national championship in 2024. We will have to wait and see how the Trevor Etienne situation unfolds.
