The LSU football team could be without its 2012 leading rusher next season, as LSU coach Les Miles announced Monday that sophomore running back Jeremy Hill has been indefinitely suspended from the football team for his involvement in an incident outside of Reggie’s Bar on Saturday morning.
Miles said he will refrain from making any additional comments on the incident until it is resolved.
Hill, 20, was arrested and charged with simple battery after allegedly punching another man outside of Reggie’s Bar.
He is currently in the midst of serving a two-year supervised probationary period after pleading guilty to misdemeanor carnal knowledge of a juvenile in January 2012.
Hill led the Tigers with 755 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2012 as a freshman. He was also the leading rusher in LSU’s spring game earlier this month, picking up 103 yards on 13 carries.
