More details are emerging following the arrest of former Maryland linebacker and UCF transfer Terrence Lewis on Sunday. The new Golden Knights’ defender allegedly punched a woman in the face at a residence in Miami Gardens, per Miami radio host Andy Slater. Slater tweeted that an unnamed senior law enforcement source shared the victim was arguing with a cousin when the incident occurred.

Police arrested and charged Lewis for domestic battery on Sunday evening, per public records. Authorities booked Lewis into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami-Dade (Fla.) County with a $1,500 bond.

Former top-50 recruit arrested in Miami

After entering the NCAA transfer portal at the end of the season, Lewis committed to UCF and Gus Malzahn following the new year. He did not play during the 2021 season after receiving surgery before Spring practices began. Upon joining Maryland, the medical staff diagnosed him with a torn ACL.

Lewis was a four-star prospect and the No. 43 player in the nation when recruited, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was a standout at Miami Central High School before committing to Maryland over TennesseeMiami and others.

In the transfer portal, he was the No. 17 linebacker available this offseason, according to On3’s transfer rankings. In the arrest report, Lewis is listed at 6-foot-1, 195 pounds.

UCF transfer Jaylon Robinson down to two

Former UCF Knights star wide receiver Jaylon Robinson is reportedly down to two options for his third collegiate home after hitting the transfer portal last month. Robinson, who started his career at Oklahoma before transferring to Central Florida, will decide between Ole Miss and Tennessee, according to 247Sports‘ Rusty Mansell.

The transfer wideout ranked No. 11 at his position per On3’s transfer rankings has completed official visits to Ole Miss, Tennessee and TCUGeorgia was also showing interest but the Bulldogs won’t get Robinson on campus, according to Mansell.

Robinson is the No. 2 best-available wide receiver in the portal currently behind former Pitt Panthers star Jordan Addison.

The 5-foot-9, 180-pound junior had the best season of his career in 2020 after sitting out in 2019. He posted 979 yards on 55 catches with four touchdowns. In 2021, he had 18 catches in six games played for 322 yards and two touchdowns. He suffered a knee injury on Sept. 17 against Louisville that kept him on the sideline for five games.
