Suspended Mizzou player arrested

Posted: Saturday February 02, 2008 11:35AM ET

Jason Horton, already suspended from the Missouri basketball team for a curfew violation, was arrested Friday in Columbia and charged with misdemeanor third-degree assault. The arrest, said Columbia Police Capt. Brad Nelson, stemmed from an incident outside the Athena Night Club where early Sunday morning MU guard Stefhon Hannah suffered a broken jaw. Hannah, Horton, Marshall Brown, Darryl Butterfield and Leo Lyons were suspended indefinitely Monday by coach Mike Anderson.

as a ku fan i am discouraged by this program in the big 12. i think mike anderson is a good coach and i think he will do a great job as soon as he takes out someone else's trash these were not his kids so remember that this seems to happen at mizzou a lot and i think he will get control of it. he has to as this embarassing to the mu fans and the big 12. hanna was done for the season anyway so kicking him off is no big deal. coach just stay away from the bad apples and good luck
