Kentucky football head coach Mark Stoops announces that four players have been suspended for the South Carolina game this weekend.
Dorian Baker, Drew Barker, Stanley “Boom” Williams and Tymere Dubose are suspended for the USC game for violation of team rules. This suspension is related to the on campus incident that occurred Sunday night.
Barker and Dubose were already going to redshirt, but Williams and Baker have been solid contributors all season.
“Proper conduct is emphasized as a core value of our program,” Coach Mark Stoops said. “If we have a situation in which someone who does not act according to our standards, we hold him accountable.”
“We absolutely respect being part of a wonderful campus community,” said Mitch Barnhart, UK director of athletics. “It disappoints us when one of our student-athletes does not live up to our expectations. We respect the process of the University and are working hand-in-hand with the campus community on this issue.”
