Bowling Green football player suspended indefinitely

Bryan Thomas, another key contributing player to the Falcon football defense, has officially been suspended from the team.

Thomas, a redshirt senior, is the fourth member of the team to be suspended since April

2014.

The streak of key player suspension began April 2014 with Nick Johnson for assaulting a woman on campus.

Defensive standout Jerry “BooBoo” Gates was arrested and suspended from the team last May after being arrested on drug trafficking charges.

The new year brought a new streak of bad luck when running back William Houston was suspended on charges of attempted rape

in March.

Now the team is found with yet another challenge, as head coach Dino Babers announced Tuesday that the defensive end, Bryan Thomas, has been

suspended from the program

indefinitely.

This comes as a response to allegations against Thomas involving his arrest for “felonious

assault” after a bar fight that took place May 29.

According to NBC24 News, Bowling Green Police responded to a fight behind a downtown bar and found the victim, who told them that a group of males had attacked him.

Upon reviewing video footage from inside the bar, police could see Thomas

assaulted the victim.

Thomas appeared in Bowling Green Municipal Court Tuesday morning and is currently being held in the Wood County Justice Center on $50,000 bond.

The University released a statement saying that Thomas will be “held accountable under the student code of conduct, in addition to any criminal charges” according to reports by NCB24 News.
