Darryl Stonum, a freshman wide receiver on the Michigan football team, has been charged with driving while intoxicated and driving with a suspended license after an incident that occurred early on the morning of Sept. 28, according to court records.
Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez suspended Stonum for the Wolverines’ Oct. 4 game against Illinois, citing a violation of team rules, but didn’t elaborate on the reason for the suspension at the time. Stonum didn’t start in Michigan’s next contest against Toledo, but he played in that game.
Rodriguez said in Tuesday’s weekly Big Ten teleconference that Stonum will face no further discipline from the team.
Stonum is scheduled to be arraigned in 15th District Court on Nov. 19.
The Ann Arbor News first reported the news today.
He was stopped July 3 for speeding and faced an initial fine of 120 dollars, according to court records. Due to late fees, the fine is now 230 dollars, and an overdue statement payment notice was sent Monday.
Stonum has 10 catches for 123 yards and touchdown on the season.
