Florida State's Jameis Winston was arrested for allegedly shoplifting crab legs from Publix.

Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston was issued a citation Tuesday for shoplifting crab legs from Publix, a misdemeanor arrest, according to multiple sources. Winston, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, is a red-shirt sophomore for the Seminoles.

Winston tossed the winning touchdown in the National Championship game over Auburn in the closing seconds. On the year, he was 257-384 for 4087 yards and 40 touchdowns with 10 interceptions.

Winston has had previous run-ins with the law, but no arrests. He was investigated for an alleged rape, but the State Attorney declined to bring charges due to a lack of evidence. In November, the associated press reported that Winston was questioned about his involvement in a long-running BB gun battle, and that a Burger King reported Winston was stealing soda in a ketchup cup.

The timing of the arrest is interesting given that the NCAA recently approved unlimited meals for student athletes.

Winston was recently voted the quarterback on the Florida State All-Jimbo Fisher team.

Tomahawk Nation has reached out to Florida State for comment and will update this story as it unfolds.
 
Snow, King, or Stone?

Maybe they do go to bed "hungry."

But seriously, what was he thinking? And secondly, give them stipends already.

 
They get unlimited free food already

This stuff has to affect his draft status.  He may have just cost himself millions.  Who knows?

I thought unlimited food doesn't go into effect until next year?  Maybe that's for basketball? 

This will not hinder his draft status.

Good grief.

The nitwits at the NCAA have already agreed to 24-hour meal privileges.  Maybe it doesn't include king crab legs, but I'm sure it's a better meal plan than 95% of FSU's student body.  This young man isn't right in the head.

Surprised that the police arrested him, I would think they would blame the crab for grabbing his hand. After the Barney Fife police work they did to investigate the rape charge against him, I figure that they would realize he still has some eligibility left.

He is rapidly becoming a player I want to root against.

 
They play Okie Lite the 1st game of season. Citadel 2nd game. I wonder which game he will be suspended for.

 
omg, his poor family!  i can only imagine the shame and disgrace, that his parents are now feeling at this time. 

silly season, has indeed started with at BANG!

There is no unlimited food yet and even if it is approved by the NCAA it still has to be approved and implemented by the schools. Having said that, I don't think Jameis needs to steal to not starve.
