Joe McKnight, star tailback of USC's football team, has been driving a sport utility vehicle owned by a Santa Monica businessman, an arrangement that the school is investigating and may be in violation of college rules.

The NCAA, which governs major college sports, prohibits student athletes from accepting benefits from marketing representatives or agents or "extra benefits" based on their athletic ability.

For several weeks, McKnight has been seen driving a well-kept 2006 Land Rover that, according to California Department of Motor Vehicles records, is registered to Scott Schenter.

Schenter, 47, has a background that includes marketing, and a company he owned registered a website called 4joemcknight.com. It is unclear whether Schenter has any ties with USC or the school had knowledge of his activities.

...Provided a document showing that Schenter had owned the domain 4joemcknight.com, the running back said, "I haven't done anything wrong. I'm just being a football player and a father to my child.

"I won't break any rules because I know if I do I can't get on the football field. I'm trying to keep my life secure and stay on the football field."

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida defensive end Carlos Dunlap is back with the team, back at practice and could be back in the starting lineup in the Allstate Sugar Bowl.

The Gators reinstated Dunlap on Friday, less than three weeks after he was arrested and charged with driving under the influence.

"He's going to play," Meyer said after practice. "I met with the administration, president and also the athletic director. His first mistake. It was a real serious one, but he paid a serious price as well. Real serious mistake, but he's been a good student, good person, and represented well."

Dunlap was arrested Dec. 1 after a Gainesville Police officer found the player passed out behind the wheel at an intersection. Meyer suspended Dunlap for the Southeastern Conference championship game, which the Gators lost 32-13 to Alabama.

Meyer said school president Bernie Machen and athletic director Jeremy Foley agreed Friday that Dunlap should be reinstated because it was his first time in trouble in three seasons.

"There was a lot of discussion, and like I said, the previous track record," Meyer said. "It's case by case. If there was another issue, then there'd be an issue. And there hasn't been, and that's what basically administration let me know. They let me know."

Dunlap, a 20-year-old junior from North Charleston, S.C., has a hearing scheduled for Jan. 21.

According to police, Dunlap was passed out through several traffic signals around 3:45 a.m. -- hours after a teammate's birthday party. An officer woke up Dunlap through a cracked window, but he kept falling back asleep.

Dunlap had watery and bloodshot eyes, the officer said, and there was a smell of alcohol. Dunlap failed a field sobriety test, refused a breath test and was arrested.

Dunlap, the defensive MVP of the Bowl Championship Series national title game in January, has 35 tackles and seven sacks this season.

Dunlap had been considered a top-10 pick in the NFL draft, and many expect him to leave school early in January.
