**Ohio State Coach Kevin McGuff Arrested for Alleged DUI**
A women’s college basketball coach was arrested last week for suspected drunken driving after police discovered him parked in his front yard with a noticeable smell of alcohol. Kevin McGuff, the head coach of Ohio State, reportedly took over two minutes to respond when asked to open the driver’s side door or window. He subsequently refused a Breathalyzer test and denied consuming alcohol or medications that could impair his abilities, according to a police report obtained by local media.
During the encounter, McGuff was asked to recite the alphabet from D to R, a task he was given three times but only managed to say the letter D before stopping, as noted by law enforcement.
Ohio State University released a statement indicating that they are in communication with Coach McGuff and are closely monitoring the situation. They emphasized that this is an ongoing personal legal matter and that further information will be shared at the appropriate time.
Prior to his arrest for operating a vehicle while impaired (OVI), a bystander had alerted the police about a 2013 Toyota Sequoia being driven recklessly, claiming the vehicle had hit several curbs and traversed through a yard. When questioned by the police, McGuff stated he had been at a restaurant, but when asked about his meal, he simply replied, “dinner.”
Since taking the helm at Ohio State in 2013, McGuff has compiled a record of 224 wins and 109 losses. He has led the Buckeyes to eight NCAA tournaments following his previous coaching stints at Washington and Xavier.
