The person whose accusations led to the arrest of two Georgia football players Monday told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution the charges were the result of inappropriate touching. Another Georgia football player may face charges after allegedly punching a fellow UGA student in a separate incident that occurred Saturday night. Sophomore offensive linemen Justin Anderson and Trinton Sturdivant were arrested Monday by Athens-Clarke County Sherriff's deputies and charged with simple battery. Warrants for their arrests were issued after an alleged incident occurred early Friday morning at the East Campus Village dormitory on the UGA campus. Trina Bailey, 22, of Bogart, gave the Altlanta Journal-Constitution permission to use her name with her account of the events. She said she and a friend were returning to the dorm about 1:30 a.m. Friday after watching a movie at another friend's house when they encountered Anderson and Sturdivant and another unidentified male in a breezeway. "These three gentlemen came out of a door and it appeared they'd been drinking," said Bailey, who said she is not a UGA student but was visiting a friend who is. "One of them asked what my name was and I told them. He asked me if I was pregnant and asked me to turn around and I did. All three of them then came up around me and two of them started touching my stomach in a way that was very uncomfortable, a kind of sexual manner. I turned and walked away and they started following me and making sexual comments."

On the stomach? Was she pregnant? They're idoits if they think that's a way to pick a girl up. "What's your name baby girl? Are you pregnant? Cause you look like it."

We've got one guy who was passing in the right lane (even though there are only two lanes on the loop-10), and he had a gun in his car and willingly told the cop about it. Then we've got two other idiots who touched a girl's stomach and said some inappropriate things to her. Better behavior could be achieved, but these are not the crimes of the century or even the week for that matter.

Where are all the UGA fans who were calling for Perrilloux's head??? If he was never arrested and they reacted the way they did any time his name was mentioned, then these 2 should be drawn and quartered.

Dude, drunk and touching a girls stomach? I've seen/done worse in a drunk state. But I agree that theya re Football players and should have known better. If they get kicked off the team so be it

Perrilloux had two other run-ins before his last one also. I believe that UGA fans weren't the only ones calling for his head, but UGA fans probably did call for his head b/c the dawgs are going to play LSU too.

July 2, 2008  12:08 PM ET

Pregnant and touching..maybe they thought it was Budda...ahhhhh who needs them..i say kick them off the team and outta school.
