Pike was kicked off the team this week after he was arrested following a traffic stop on August 16. He was charged with disregarding a stop sign, failure to signal, drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana, operating under the influence, resisting arrest, second degree escape and an open container, according to The Paducah-Sun’s Edward Marlowe.
You may recall, Pike and Patrick Towles were the top two quarterbacks in the state in the 2012 class. Pike, a Dixie Heights standout, signed with Auburn, while Kentucky ended up with Towles. What a blessing.
The four-star QB was dismissed from Auburn following an arrest early in his freshman year, then transferred to Louisville where he was arrested and dismissed once again.
