Gonzaga basketball coach Mark Few has learned his fate after being arrested for a DUI.

According to The Associated Press, Few has pleaded guilty to a DUI charge after being cited for driving under the influence in Idaho. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

He must pay a fine of $1,000, do 24 hours of community service and his license is suspended until November 5.

Few has also been suspended for Gonzaga’s opener against Dixie State, which is an all-time laughable punishment. I sure hope the Bulldogs will be fine against Dixie State without him!

As I always say, there’s never an excuse to drive under the influence. I love beer as much as the next guy, but I’m not going to hop behind the wheel after a few too many.

Mark Few makes a ton of money as Gonzaga’s basketball coach, and he has more than enough resources to get a driver or an Uber.

When you drive drunk, you’re putting everyone on the road at risk.

Now, he’ll pay a fine that is the equivalent of pocket change to him, do some community service and sit out a game.

I think it’s very fair to say that he has gotten off very easy.

Hopefully, he learns from his mistake and never does it again.
