Scottie Scheffler has jokes.

Scheffler, who was arrested and briefly jailed by Louisville police after a visitors incident throughout this 12 months’s PGA Championship in Could (all expenses, together with feloy assault of a police officer, had been later dropped), took the chance for some levity.
“To not deliver something private into this with Louisville – nice metropolis, nice folks,” Scheffler stated. “However I believe Miami is gonna smoke ‘em.”
Scheffler was pressed extra on the decide with the panelists asking if he’d watched any tape or thought of choosing Louisville. To which Scheffler merely responded, “No… nice metropolis, nice folks.”
Kirk Herbstreit was the lone member of the desk to go along with the Cardinals, which prompted Pat McAfee to ask Herbstreit, jokingly, if he preferred that Scheffler was arrested by Louisville police?
“No,” Herbstreit stated. “I believed that that was unacceptable. I didn’t get the half the place they stated he dragged the officer down. I didn’t see that…”
This was Scheffler’s second School Gameday look, as he was the visitor picker and acquired the PGA Tour Participant of the Yr Award in 2022 forward of the Texas-Alabama recreation. Scheffler picked the Longhorns to drag off the upset that day, which they did.
