CFB: Hoosiers suspend 2 players for season opener


Associated Press

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Indiana coach Bill Lynch suspended defensive tackle Deonte Mack and linebacker Ian Reeves on Sunday and will hold them out of Thursday night’s season opener against Eastern Kentucky.

Lynch said in a statement issued by the athletic department that both players violated team rules. He did not elaborate.
Mack, a junior, started nine games last season and finished with 21 tackles, 2› sacks and one fumble recovery. He has played in 23 games over the past two seasons after redshirting in 2006.
Reeves, a sophomore, played in all 12 games last season, starting one as a fullback.
Neither player was listed on the team’s two-deep depth chart, which was released Friday.
