BOULDER — The Colorado football team has lost the anchor to its defensive line.
On Friday, CU associate athletic director David Plati confirmed that Josh Tupou will not play for the Buffaloes in 2015.
"Josh will not be a member of the team this fall," Plati said. "Due to student privacy laws, we are not permitted to go into specifics as to why."
It's possible that Tupou's status with the team is related to an incident in February, when Tupou was accused of starting a brawl on University Hill.
Tupou was arrested in March on suspicion of second-degree assault, two counts of third-degree assault, criminal mischief, trespassing and reckless endangerment.
