Sonoran Hot Reads: Former Arizona lineman Jordan Poland arrested, has million dollar bail

This is some serious stuff here

Back in July of 2015, offensive lineman Jordan Poland was dismissed by the Arizona Wildcats thanks to pawning off a stolen microphone. Well, the former four-star recruit is in a lot more trouble now. On Thursday afternoon, this tweet appeared, saying that Poland has been arrested, and his bail is set at $1 million (!). On Friday night, SDPreps tweeted that the charge is “kidnapping for ransom”
