Tennessee dismisses one, suspends two others after bar brawl

NCAA Football Betting Lines

07/09/2010 - Knoxville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The University of Tennessee football program dismissed Darren Myles Jr. and suspended Marlon Walls and Greg King indefinitely for their participation in a bar fight in Knoxville early Friday morning.

It was reported earlier Friday that six Tennessee players had been arrested in reference to the incident, according to the Knoxville News Sentinel. Myles, a sophomore defensive back, was charged with assault, resisting arrest and evading arrest, while Da'Rick Rogers, a highly-touted incoming freshman receiver, was charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, per the paper citing the Knoxville Police Department.

Both were released from jail this morning after posting bond, but more charges could be on the way. The altercation sent two people to the hospital, one an off-duty police officer who was knocked unconscious and also reportedly kicked repeatedly while down.

"I am disappointed and in many ways embarrassed by the poor judgment displayed on many fronts by several members of our football team [Friday morning]," Volunteers head coach Derek Dooley said. "I am respectful of the process that follows with the local authorities and with our institutional guidelines and leadership. As I have referenced on many occasions, a change in culture is achieved in time through a combination of education, discipline and support."

While none of the six have been officially charged in the beating of officer Robert Capouellez, the paper cited University of Tennessee Police Department reports as pointing to Myles and Rogers along with fellow members of the football team -- John Brown, Matthew Milton and Denarious Moore -- as being involved in the incident. A sixth player, Montori Hughes, is being questioned.

It is unknown how Walls, a freshman linebacker, and King, a sophomore linebacker, were involved in the altercation.

Moore, a senior, was the second leading receiver for the Volunteers last year as a junior, totaling 540 yards on 40 catches with a team-high seven touchdown receptions. Brown is a junior college transfer defensive lineman while Milton was another top recruit at wide receiver. Both he and Rogers were expected to contribute in the passing game right away.

In November 2009, three Tennessee players were arrested in Knoxville on charges of attempted armed robbery after an early-morning incident at a gas station near the edge of campus. Two players in that incident were kicked off the team, while safety Janzen Jackson returned to the squad after a suspension.

The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play.

What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country.
