Qwenton Freeman kicked off the team for hurling a bottle
Cornerback Qwenton Freeman, who may have been there when Jimmy Wilson allegedly shot another man in the chest, has been kicked off the football team. No, it wasn't because he was being uncooperative with local authorities, but because of a separate incident that happened early Sunday morning.
According to police, the senior cornerback allegedly threw a beer bottle at a man standing outside Stockman's Bar on West Front Street early Sunday morning. It was the second alleged disturbance over the weekend involving Freeman, though UM officials were only aware of the disturbance Sunday morning.This comes from a Missoulian article by Triston Scott, which says that Freeman was kicked off the team for "not adhering to disciplinary guidelines." How dumb can you be? You'd think that if you were part of a murder investigation, you'd want to lay low for a bit. With all this stuff going on, you'd want to stay out of the bar scene for a bit, right? Or at least be calm if you did go down there? This offseason just keeps getting better.
“These are serious matters, and it is very disturbing,” UM Athletic Director Jim O'Day said in the statement. “At this point, we are following a zero-tolerance policy, and Qwenton made a bad error in judgment. To that end, he will no longer be a member of the Montana Grizzly football team.”
