SEC's Sportsmanship Award winner arrested after campus fight

According to the Jackson Clarion-Ledger, Scott was arrested early Thursday morning and charged with disturbing the peace. The charge was a result of an on-campus fight with an Elmer Johnson. That's E-l-m-e-r Johnson.
Scott's charge is a misdemeanor; Johnson is facing felony charges for having the name "Elmer".
Head coach Houston Nutt is still in the information-gathering phase of the process and had no comment.
The sophomore rushed for 140 yards and two touchdowns in 2009, and is in the mix to replace Dexter McCluster as the Rebels' starting back.
