stateJan 3, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Michigan State University is currently reeling under the loss of eight players. The suspension has come after the players had been identified as the ones who had been involved in a brawl in their locker room. The players who had been suspended were Mark Dell, receiver B.J. Cunningham, receiver Chris L. Rucker, the defensive back Fred Smith, Jamiihr Williams- the linebacker of the team, the defensive lineman Ishmyl Johnson, Ashton Leggett- the running back, and Barndon Trawick, the defensive back of the team.

The players had reportedly attacked some students of the university, male and female both, as the latter were clearing up after the celebration of a fraternity potluck. Apparently, the suspension order includes about 14 to 15 of the Spartans. However, there is some contention about whether all of these player have been suspended or not, as according to the speculations, some of them may have been altogether dismissed from the team.

The players had been identified as the ones who had been involved in a major fight in the locker room of the university. They had been suspended by their coach, Mike Dantoni. It has not yet been decided as to when the suspension order would be lifted and they would be back in the team. However, so far, they have been banned from taking part in the Alamo Bowl. In fact, they have been suspended from taking part in any sort of activities that involve the team. Of course, the suspension may come as pretty heavy on the team, as it would be missing quite a number of their key players in the Alamo Bowl.
