SEC Quick Hits...

2013 Alabama commitment Deon Johnson has been arrested and charged with first degree rape. This marks the second time this month that Johnson, a highly rated wide receiver recruit, has been arrested and charged with rape. Here's guessing Nick Saban cuts ties with Johnson after his second rape arrest. Just my opinion, though.  But what do I know?

 Kentucky quarterback Maxwell Smith says he expects to play at South Carolina this weekend, even though the Wildcat signal caller has a separated shoulder. Smith's presence should NOT make a difference in the game however, as the Gamecocks will run wild all over the struggling Wildcats. 

Arkansas has publicly declared they will stick with interim coach John L. Smith for the remainder of the 2012 season. With everything that has transpired around the Arkansas program over the past 6 months, it is wise of AD Jeff Long to stick with the current coaching staff and ride out what will most likely be a rocky remainder of the season. It can't get much worse than it already is in Fayetteville. It would be in the best interest of the program to let the season play out and reevaluate the situation at the conclusion of the season.
