No word so far from the school as to whether he could face additional disciplinary action.....

Florida State fullback Joe Surratt, one of the better pure blocking backs in college football, is out indefinitely after fracturing his right fibula. The 250-pounder will undergo surgery Monday. Surratt could be back by midseason, but FSU has not ruled out the possibility of a redshirt.....
