IOWA CITY, Iowa – Iowa senior wide receiver Ihmir Smith-Marsette was arrested early Sunday morning for operating a vehicle while under the influence just hours after the Hawkeyes lost to Northwestern 21-20 at Kinnick Stadium.
According to the police report, Smith-Marsette allegedly was traveling 74 mph on Riverside in a 30 mph zone. He blew a .13% blood-alcohol level.
This is Smith-Marsette’s first OWI offense.
Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz announced that Smith-Marsette will be suspended for Saturday’s game against Michigan State.
