Former Arizona Wildcats point guard and current IUPUI basketball coach Jason Gardner was arrested Monday morning for driving while intoxicated, according to RTV6, a news station in Indiana.

IUPUI said in a statement to Fox 59 that “we are aware of the situation regarding men’s head basketball coach Jason Gardner and are looking into the circumstances.”

Gardner, 38, has been IUPUI’s head coach since 2014-15. In five seasons, he has compiled a 64-94 record. Prior to that, he was an assistant at Memphis and Loyola Illinois.

The Indianapolis native attended Arizona from 1999-2003, and was a three-time All-Pac-12 performer, averaging 14.6 points per game over his career.

He led Arizona to the national championship game in 2001, and his No. 22 jersey is retired by the school.
