SEAT PLEASANT, Md. (AP) - In too much of a hurry to get to practice, former Michigan star Chris Webber ended up with a face full of pepper spray, six hours in jail and a marijuana charge.
After a routine traffic stop for speeding, the Washington Wizards forward was arrested yesterday and charged with assault, resisting arrest, possession of marijuana, driving under the influence of marijuana and five other traffic-related violations.

Last February, Minnesota basketball coach Clem Haskins walked into the Crisler Arena press room following the Gophers' 55-54 victory over Michigan, donning a basketball net around his neck and a wide grin on his face.
Who could blame him? The No. 2 team in the nation had just captured the Gophers' first Big Ten title since 1982 and beaten the Wolverines at Crisler Arena for the second time in 28 tries.Last year is a long time ago for Gophers' Haskins
