Penalties include suspension of license, $250 fine
Associated Press

ATHENS, Ohio -- Ohio coach Frank Solich was convicted of drunken driving Monday, two days after police spotted him slumped over the wheel of his vehicle.

Solich, in his first season with the Bobcats, pleaded no contest and was ordered to complete a three-day driver intervention program. He also had his license suspended for 180 days and was fined $250.

The former Nebraska coach apologized in court. He declined to comment afterward.

The university, in a statement released before his court appearance, said Solich would remain in charge of the Bobcats as it monitored the case.

Solich, 61, appeared to be passed out when police found him Saturday night in the vehicle, which was facing the wrong direction on a one-way street and in drive, according to a police report.

"I know Frank as a man of impeccable integrity, and I am confident that he will respond to this situation in a positive manner and use these circumstances to better teach others, including his players, the importance of making wise decisions," Ohio athletic director Kirby Hocutt said in the statement.

The Bobcats were 4-7 in their first year under Solich, who grew up in Ohio.

Solich was 58-19 in six seasons as Nebraska's coach before being fired after the 2003 regular season.

The latest rumor making the rounds is that Solich was slipped some GHB.

And no, I have no idea why someone would want to slip Solich a roofer.

Well, I don't ever want a DWI, but if I were to get one, Ohio seems to be the place. I know in Texas first time offenses cost around $4000. $250 and a class is cake compared to that.

Then again, maybe he just got the star treatment.

$250 was the fine, there were also court costs and the price of the intervention program which runs around $400-500.

I'm guessing he was out about a grand.
