Michigan State running back LJ Scott was arrested Wednesday for driving with a suspended license according to Lansing State Journal.

Scott,was arrested and later released on a personal recognizance bond, East Lansing Police spokesman Lt. Chad Connelly said Thursday. He declined to comment further because Scott has not yet been arraigned.

The charge carries up to a year in jail if Scott is convicted because he has at least one prior conviction on the same charge.

Scott has been charged for driving without a license or on a suspended license at least six other times  since last year, according to the Journal’s report.

The arrest comes off the heels after a career day for Scott. Last Saturday, Scott ran for 194 yards and two touchdowns i a 30-27 win over the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
