Georgia cornerback Commings placed on probation by OSC (w/Documents)
Over one month after being arrested for domestic violence, Georgia defensive back Sanders Commings has reached an “informal resolution” with the University’s Office of Student Conduct.
According to the resolution, Commings has agreed to be on six months probation, attend an alcohol and drug education course, participate in an anger management program and perform 25 hours of community service.
Commings was arrested on Jan. 21 and charged with domestic violence/simple battery.
According to a copy of the informal resolution obtained by The Red & Black, Commings “engaged in physical abuse, physical intimidation, coercion, and/or other conduct that threatened or endangered the health or safety of another person.”
The resolution states that a violation of probation “will likely result in suspension from the University of Georgia.”
Commings is accused of hitting his girlfriend in downtown Athens.
He is scheduled to be arraigned on March 22 for charges stemming from the January incident.
Georgia coach Mark Richt has suspended Commings for the first two games of the 2012 season, which will cause him to miss the Sep. 1 game against Buffalo and the Bulldogs’ Southeastern Conference opener against Missouri on Sept. 8.
