This is not good news for the school or the program. Anthony Stewart was a walk on who got very little playing time but he sure has given the school and program a black eye.

UK football player Anthony Stewart was arrested and charged with possession of cocaine and trafficking marijuana Monday night, UK athletics announced Tuesday.

Stewart, a junior wide receiver, was charged with felony possession of a controlled substance and felony trafficking of marijuana at his arraignment Tuesday afternoon. He pleaded not guilty to both charges.

Stewart was released from Fayette County Detention Center after his father posted the $10,000 bail after his arraignment.

A Lexington police narcotics enforcement unit carried out a search warrant and entered Stewart's home on Olympia Road, Monday around 8:30 p.m., according to the police report. Police found bags and wrappings containing marijuana residue, the report said.

The bags were marked with specific weights that totaled more than five pounds, the report said. Police also found approximately three grams of cocaine.

Stewart was "suspended indefinitely until the resolution of his situation," said Tony Neely, UK athletics director of media relations.

Stewart was a high school teammate of senior running back Rafael Little at T.L. Hanna High School in Anderson, S.C. He has played one time in his UK career, last season against Texas State.

This is old news. He is not a scholly player and hasn't seen the field. Big deal. Kids make mistakes. He will learn his lesson. It's time to move on.
