LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Running back Quentin Castille has been dismissed from the Nebraska football team.
Coach Bo Pelini said Saturday that Castille, a junior from La Porte, Texas, had violated team rules. He did not elaborate on the violation.
In a statement, Pelini said: "It's pretty black and white my expectations and what we lay out as a staff, and if someone doesn't follow those policies and guidelines, they're no longer going to be with the program, and that's the case with Quentin."
Earlier this year, an arrest warrant was issued for Castille after he failed to appear in court on traffic violations. He was later fined for a missing license plate.
