Iowa Hawkeyes receiver Derrell Johnson-Koulianos was arrested on Tuesday after a search warrant at his home turned up marijuana, cocaine and prescription drugs. The warrant was the result of an ongoing drug drug investigation by police in Iowa City. Johnson-Koulianos was charged with multiple counts of drug possessions, as well as keeping a drug house. The senior wide receiver was released from jail Tuesday night after posting $8,000 bail.
