Josh Heupel apologizes for UCF players' behavior during arrest

UCF coach Josh Heupel apologized for the behavior of several Knights football players involved in a traffic stop that led to the arrest of defensive back Antwan Collier.

“I want to make it abundantly clear that the behavior of some of our football players last Thursday was completely inappropriate,” Heupel said in a statement released Monday evening. “Those actions are not who we are or what we’re about. They are not representative of our university or our program. That’s not us, that’s not UCF, that’s not UCF Football, and we have to be better than that.

“On behalf of our program, I want to apologize to everyone associated with UCF.
