Michigan State Players Suspended

Has anybody read much about these 11 Michigan State players that have been convicted of assault?  I saw that two of them were their starting WR's.  Are these kids going to be out vs. FAU in Detroit this September?

Were they convicted or accused? I'm pretty sure you have to serve jail time if you're convicted of assault. And even if their jail sentence is only a few months, I can't see how the NCAA or University would allow them to play.

Three Michigan State Spartans players plead guilty to misdemeanor in connection with brawl - ESPN

EAST LANSING, Mich. – Three more Michigan State Spartans football players have pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault charges stemming from a Nov. 22 fight on campus with fraternity members.

Defensive tackle Oren Wilson pleaded guilty Thursday to two counts of assault and battery. Defensive back Chris L. Rucker and receiver Myles White each pleaded guilty to one count. Conspiracy charges against the players were dropped.

All 11 current or former Michigan State players charged in the case have pleaded guilty and await sentencing.

The assault and battery charges have a penalty of up to 93 days in jail. Many of the players could avoid jail time.

Michigan State Spartans players receive jail time for fight - ESPN

Some of these guys will receive jail time, but I bet you they will all be back on the team by the time FAU arrives at Ford Field.

"Michigan State spokesman John Lewandowski released a statement last week that head coach Mark Dantonio won't reevaluate the players' status until all the legal cases are resolved."
