Another Georgia football player was arrested for racing on FinWeisa highway street Wednesday night, police records indicate.

Linebacker Smael Mondon was taken into custody by Clarke County police late Wednesday on misdemeanor charges of racing on highways/streets and reckless driving. He was released at 12:25 Thursday morning on $26 total bond.

Redshirt freshman offensive lineman Bo Hughley was arrested Tuesday by UGA police in a separate misdemeanor incident for failure to maintain lane/improper driving on road and reckless driving. He, too, was released on $26 bond at 10:07 p.m., an hour and a half after going into custody.

Mondon, a Paulding County native, will be a three-year starter for the Bulldogs who was a Second-Team All-SEC selection last year. He led the team in tackles two seasons ago when the Bulldogs won the second of back-to-back national titles.

Running back Trevor Etienne resolved his case of reckless driving and DUI by accepting a plea deal in Athens-Clarke County court on Wednesday.

Reckless driving has been a common issue for Georgia the past three years. Wide receiver Sacovie White was arrested in May for the infraction and support staffer and former UGA linebacker Jarvis Jones was cited for the infraction last September. Speeding and alcohol also led to the deaths of football player Devin Willock and UGA staffer Chandler LeCroy in January 2023.

Harris was a four-star recruit from Langston Hughes High School in Fairburn who played against Florida State in the 63-3 Orange Bowl blowout in December.
