The January 1 incident is Weathers' second incident within a few months. According to The Tulsa World, "Weathers was arrested outside a Stillwater bar on Sept. 9 after allegedly stealing a woman's wallet and using a debit card in it to pay for drinks at the bar. He was suspended from team activities immediately, but (OSU Head Coach Mike) Boynton reinstated him after his felony charge was reduced to a misdemeanor."
