Byrd suspended for season opener
Terrill Byrd, UC’s All-American defensive tackle, has been suspended for the Bearcats’ Aug. 28 season opener vs. Eastern Kentucky.
Byrd, a junior from Colerain High School, was cited for smoking marijuana on March 5 at his residence in the 2800 block of Bearcat Way.
He paid a $65 fine and $90 in costs on March 15.
“We said we would handle that matter and we are handling that internally,” UC coach Brian Kelly said today. “We think we’ve handed out the appropriate punishment for what we thought was poor judgment. He’s going to be suspended for the opener against Eastern Kentucky.”

Post a Comment*Super glad to see that we still have a good football team and coach. Ben Mauk will be missed though. He brought both leadership and talent to the table. And a toughness that many QB's lack. Should be fun to watch the QB competition this spring and again in August. I think at least one or two of them will be a very pleasant surprise. Really can't wait for this to begin! FOOTBALL!!
As long as he plays @ Oklahoma.
DIDN'T EXPECT MORE, DIDN'T EXPECT LESS
A $65 dollar fine doesn't sound like the legal system considers this the crime of the century, does it?
