Miami suspends 4 players for season opener
Four Miami Hurricane players, including running back Tyrone Moss and receiver Ryan Moore, were suspended for the Sept. 4 season opener against Florida State because they violated team policy.
Linebacker James Bryant and receiver Rashaun Jones also were suspended, coach Larry Coker said Tuesday.
Moore’s suspension will include the second game of the season against Florida A&M. He was suspended for the Peach Bowl at the end of last season.
Coker declined to say what prompted the punishment.
“It’s all the same incident,” he said. “The message is pretty clear — we have high standards here. We’re a program of quality kids. And these kids are good kids. They’re not bad kids. But we’ve got to get this message across.”
Pardon us while we recover from the shock of having four Miami players suspended for whatever violation the school refuses to disclose.
Just a minute.
Hold on…
Okay.
We would joke that it looks like they are just getting the suspensions out of the way all at once, but that would imply that we wouldn’t be expecting any more. There are, after all, 3 certainties in life: death, taxes, and Miami Hurricane team violations.
